Media - celebrity banal led rubbish.
Politics - Dual party closed shop
Economy - well, you're having a laugh there.

Media and Politics: Supermodel 'journalists' who vomit the shite dictated to them by the Ministry of Propoganda at the White House. There is no alternate point of view here at all.

Political debate is focused on a few hot button issues: gay rights, abortion, how the country is falling apart and we need to return to 'christian values'. People are kept busy with these moral issues and the politicos in DC keep stealing all our money. I could go on, but you get the picture.

Economy: It's in the toilet. Lots of stealth taxes. Policticians cut taxes to win votes and then realise that they don't have any money to pay for things like schools or roads. Infrastructure is crumbling and no one has the balls to raise taxes to pay for stuff. Clown Bush has mortgaged our future to fund his nation building escapades around the world.

It's not a fair question, i live here in U.S. and i've been to Austrialia and i love it there. They are both great countries with a lot to offer.

Austrialia is better for Austrialians and America is better for Americans.

haven't we done one of these recently and wasn't there a zip all chance of making it to the US?

If so, what's the point?

I thought of this before. Don't they offer free health service to residents should we migrate? Lovely weather and all.

But for some reason, I'm more pulled in working in America.

Comic Books, of course!

If the language was that important to me I would be more concerned about people being able to speak English correctly than whether or not it was their first language - in which case I would probably be in Scandinavia or the Netherlands ...

So true... Both the United States and Australia are complete shit compared to the Netherlands.

Personally I rate it on a scale of 1 to 10. I'm not sure I wanna fool with the Stars method. Seems kinda dodgy.

I'd love to live in the USA, more than anywhere else, but after 8 years of trying to get a visa (H1B) with no luck, and my company not transferring people to the USA offices due to cost, I'm uping sticks and moving to Oz.

Why.....I don't want to live in the UK any longer. I've never been to Oz but as I can't get in the USA and the UK is not somewhere I want to stay Oz it is for me. Hope its nice
