If you’re a Twitchy VIP member (and shame on you if you’re not), you might have just finished a VIP piece by our own Just Mindy about Batya Ungar-Sargon schooling CNN on the two kinds of illegal immigrants: those who are working and thus depressing wages for U.S. citizens, and those who are being subsidized by American taxpayers.
You might have noticed Jill Filipovic jumping in with the Democrats’ standard, “Where will we get cheap labor?” argument. We need those illegal immigrants to work the fields, clean our houses, and do roofing work. Do you really want to pay $700 for someone to clean your one-bedroom apartment?
If you would like to pay $30 for a pint of strawberries, $700 for someone to clean your one-bedroom apartment, and $100,000 for a new roof on your normal-sized house, then deporting all undocumented people is a policy you should support.

It’s the standard “But who will pick the crops?” response that comes as a defense of importing illegals to undercut American workers.
This is literally the same argument that pro-slavery people made in the mid-1800s, Jill. You realize that, right?

Are Americans that spoiled by cheap, illegal alien labor?
Those panties aren’t going to pick themselves up off the floor by themselves.

A lot of you seem to have no idea how dirty a one-bedroom apartment can get when you own cats, or how hard it is to find an American willing to clean litter boxes.

A lot of childless cat ladies out there need help.
What kind of lazy idiot pays someone $700 to clean a one-bedroom apartment for them?

The demographic with housekeepers and one bedroom apartments is precisely the left wing urban/Mamdani coalition
