[/quote] Not "us Americans", just certain ones. Australia has their fair share just like every other country out there. [/quote] i tell ya what, you NEVER hear aussies talk shit about teachers, firefighters ect like ya'll do. [/quote] i agree with u to a point. i bet your country outrates us in education, protection, etc. i have heard of countries where the % of taxes was extremely higher than the USA. however ,they DID NOT have the level of corruption and greed. they had servicesmore than us also.their prices were not out of control either. so yes if things worked the right way AND it is sustainable,and the $$ isn't feeding top officials pockets or union exec's pockets,then mayb it wouldb different.
