The Biden-Harris Administration is committing to spend more than $300 per day per family to house illegal immigrants in hotels. At the same time, the 20,000 National Guard troops manning the Capitol barricades are sleeping on the concrete floors of parking garages in DC. Presidential Press Secretary Jen Psaki called this seeming inequity "logical."
"Migrants come here in search of a better life," she explained. "The President is determined to fulfill that dream. Putting them up in expensive hotels is a good way to give them a taste of the good life and reward them for undertaking a long and dangerous journey to get here. It is hoped that after living in high style for a short period these immigrants will not be satisfied with the meager welfare benefits that are available to them. They will be inspired to work hard, start businesses, or find other ways to acquire the money needed to afford living in posh housing."
"National Guard troops, on the other hand, have committed to serve their country," Psaki said. "Part of serving the country is to undertake unpleasant jobs. Surviving in harsh living conditions is part of what it means to be a soldier. Given how bad living conditions could be in an actual combat zone, the parking garages where they're currently bivouacking are a step up. If we were to accommodate them in DC hotels we would dangerously undermine the satisfaction of sacrificing comfort for the good of the country."
