This administration not only facilitated the illicit drug trade with its border policies, it is bringing in plenty of fresh meat to sell the stuff to. At all levels, it's about the money, not a humanitarian effort.

Poorly-adapted parasites kill their hosts. Well-adapted parasites keep their hosts alive so they can live off of them long-term.
Your parasite analogy to dealers is apt, but so is my critique of their business model -- shifting to the biological analogy, a dealer (parasite) whose drugs are more addictive and more pleasurable to the user (host) but do not kill the user (host) is better adapted than one who kills his users (host).
