I think there is a word for what happened to them? I heard they owe about 6 million dollars.

The following link was the best source I could find with bona fide numbers.

Ofcourse they’d employ trump’s tactic of racking up costs and simply refusing to pay. I’d say the student learns from the master, but I’m not sure which one is which here.

The US is definitely the master, and has gleefully let the student steer the wheel

Does the US, as a polity, have a history of non-payment after rendered services?

That’s more famously a Trump staple.

Generally the US is very good about paying back its debts. However, under Trump this hasn’t always been the case…

This is generally why the US bond market is so heavy in foreign investment, frankly.

That was true 40 years ago. The decline started before Trump, although I’ll certainly grant that he’s one of the worst offenders and has poured jet fuel on the fire.

I’m not even surprised anymore except that i thought they would cover their tracks better.

“Public diplomacy”… lol. I’d say that buying a US politician probably has a better RoI, but most of them are already bought.
