You’ve hooked into an arrogant Spaniard there. He thinks lowly of Americans but highly of war, especially when we pay and send our young men. He’s not an American citizen regardless of his claim of paying taxes. Even foreigners pay taxes when they buy a bag of chips at the airport.

This is true, looked at in a certain way. I see it, however, as a reluctance to hide our light under a bushel.
Its a trait shared with Americans btw. Ask the British.
