A flippant remark that I will probably regret - sure there's assholes
|
|
everywhere. I just remember a lunch in Spain with
|
|
a semi-famous American - I think we had about 10 nationalities at the
|
|
table, and he managed to insult each of them within
|
|
15 minutes. A historical perspective makes me think that empires -
|
|
Roman, British, Russian, American, whatever - produce
|
|
a larger proportion of assholes than subject nations (and are more
|
|
likely to have them in positions of authority).
