And it’s just historically ignorant and obnoxious.

Yeah, they don't even know about the battle of the gulf in the year 1218 when the confederated mayan forces trounced the Americans in an epic cannon battle and won the naming rights.

"Stupid is as stupid does."

The phrase carries the meaning of someone identified as stupid through their actions rather than their appearance.

The phrase means that stupid people will do silly things, and you can single them out by looking at their methodology and results with handling tasks.

The USA national debt is a good proxy measure.

The world outside the USA needed us dollars for petroleum and international trade. One of the major us enterprises has been to supply these funds in exchange for goods and services.

It is currently running at $1T every 100 days.

This means the world is selling more to the USA than equal exchange. They take those dollars away and buy oil and other international trade, or they hold the money. The us is being paid to create the currency that is used.

Frankly, the growing national debt is not as big a problem as the alternatives.

You jump to the assumption they weren't on an innocent beach holiday in Russia? You're paranoid.
