The Surge Of Illegal Aliens At The Border Is Not Merely Seasonal--And It's The Fault Of Biden And Progressives

Gosh, who could have predicted that irrational, idiotic policies and incentives could cause problems?
   Make no mistake about it: this is progressive immigration policy in action. It's Biden's fault--but, more generally, it's the fault of irrational, utopian, and-nation-state, globalist progressivism. The pandemic, you see, is so horrible that we should all cower in our homes and never even think of leaving!!! It's also so utterly nothing at all that it's totally fine if illegals pour across the border from the very areas suffering the most dangerous resurgence... 
   No, wait! Consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, bigot. This is no harder to understand than that anti-lockdown protests are major superspreader events while BLM protests are actually healthful and awesome...
   This is the story of contemporary American politics and the culture war: reasonable policies vs. utterly insane ones. These are not the ordinary gray-area close-calls we face in ordinary times. What I long for is the days when most policy disagreements were somewhere in the six-of-one, half-a-dozen of the other range. Sane vs. crazy is bad enough when sane is winning...but that's not what we're getting.
   Not to put too fine a point on it: but progressives are responsible for this humanitarian crisis in addition to everything else about it. 
   And, hey, just wait until we're also offering "free" heath care and UBI! That border surge will be a tsunami.
