You seem angry about the 'welfare' aspect, but think of the alternative: we capture and detain harmless prisoners for 7 years without trial, and then release them penniless onto the American streets, with no one to help them and no ability to fend for themselves here (cultural familiarity, business norms, language). That's not only morally reprehensible, but very stupid in a practical sense: we would almost guarantee that they turn to criminality, if not worse.
