You preen like a sham potentate before a country so poor it has to send millions of its citizens to work in other lands, expect to be jeered out of town, whether out of envy or plain outrage at such insensitivity. The parvenus, arrivistes and nouveau riche of this country—they do deserve to be knocked down a perch or two, not only for their arrogance but also for their supreme bad taste.
