I like how the 'comparison' countries change for every category, even though the US is included in every one. As usual with STANG posts, objectivity goes right out the window.

Have a read of my profile.
And, as I said before (though I get accused of repeating myself), my underlying question is "Why are Americans so blindly patriotic when one considers issues in my opening post, as well as the deaths of up to 100,000 people in Iraq".

My own "backyard" includes train stations that no longer have rubbish bins since America raised the threat of terrorism.

Rwanda, Shrebinica (sp) and the 1st gulf war are all examples of where half measures lead to chronic problems.

Two countries built on the protestant work ethic, if try hard you can achieve. Both have liberal costal cities and red neck right wing centres.
Having visited both I would say that Australia is more relaxed, but is higher taxed. Ultimately Australia is probably more free because America is constrained by legally and morally by religion.
