    Nothing is a bit extreme. How about a bill of rights? How about choice in how to pay for things rather than be forced to use the banking system at a cost? How about housing costs ? How about investing in their own country?

    there are many positives on both sides of the water

    there is no reason to have a competition about it

      Housing costs may be lower but affordability is on par.

      Especially in places that are a bit progressive.

      They have fuck all job security. Medicare tied to employment and such a corrupt political system, that makes Australian politicians look like saints.

      No doubt we’re not perfect but we’re way ahead of the yanks where at looking out for our own.
