It was a textbook addition of insult to injury.

No price ceiling. No fine print. No blame-shifting to the driver. No insurance claim that haunts you for years.

On the eve of its 250^th birthday, the United States isn’t exactly at peak popularity, globally speaking. One poll this past spring found that despite its past most-admired status, the U.S. is now viewed less favorably than China in much of the world.
