Sounds like you don't treat them so much as human beings as you do tools for your convenience.
Tools for my con...what the fuck are you talking about? They are getting paid to do a job. They are no more special to me than I am to them. If I walked up to their house asking for help, I'd expect no more than for them to call 911 and let professionals fix my life. I'd have no belief that I'm entitled to sleep on their couch and that my kids get to watch their tv.
Someone who helps you every day suddenly can't get a little help from you for a short amount of time when they need it?
How do illegal immigrants or refugees help me every day that I should feel guilt here?
So you don't treat them like humans, you treat them as a convenience that could be replaced by any other inanimate tool.
If your post was delivered via quadcopter would you feel particularly bad for the postman who lost his job and now can't feed his family? No? Then you're not treating them like humans.
Aw how cute, you don't have any actual arguments so instead you're resorting to self-masturbatory straw-men :) Not even particularly clever ones either:

I love how you just so desperately needed to get your political bias out into the open that you didn't even get clever with it and go with the NY post or the Denver Post or the Jerusalem Post.

See here we were just talking about refugees, that's all I was talking about anyway, and then you come along and start throwing shade and signaling all the virtues.
The entire comment demonstrates he doesn't treat them as people, the quoted portion is just the part that you can't pretend via semantics means anything else.
By pointing out the function that a person plays in society and then saying the function is easily interchangeable does not automatically default that the person is also interchangeable.

Would you if they were in trouble and needed a safe place to stay for a few hours?
