I ended up in a conversation with a moronic border security twat on my only ever business trip to the states.
"So your company writes software for Americans?"
"So an American company bought your company?"
"So your company is now owned by Americans? Why didn't they write the software here?"
"If it's now American, why can't the training be provided by Americans?"
I was pretty sure he was going to ask why the fuck I wasn't time travelling in order to ensure everything was done by Americans.
All this after enduring repeated announcements for military personnel to come and enjoy the FREEDOM LOUNGE in Denver or Detroit, whatever shithole it was that I was travelling through.

From my view as a non-American? Farcical.
