Given that something like only 14% of Americans even OWN a passport, let alone have actually travelled overseas, I'm not surprised that ignorance + frustration + nationalism = vitriol spewed at the people who make it possible for us to get cheap cheap consumer goods. People are stupid and ungrateful, on the whole. Especially people who have come to believe that they are entitled to everything they want, now now now.
