All-American

"I'm a very well-educated, successful, intelligent person. This is insane to me that I have an armed guard outside my door when I've cooperated with everything other than the whole solitary-confinement-in-Italy thing."

- Andrew Speaker, Human Excrement

If you've been under a rock recently (like I have kinda been), you may have missed the Georgia lawyer who ran around the planet with a dangerous drug-resistant form of TB because, well, because he's too rich to be hindered by such a tiny thing as a low form of plague.

Yeah, he's American. And yes, this should be instructive for you as how the rest of the world sees us. Sure, anyone of any nationality might have done this. But the guy that got caught is a white lawyer from Down South who thought *he* was above such things as worrying about the public welfare.

And now we all will probably have to suffer somehow from his stupidity and those like him.
