not in California. The Mexicans took it from the indians, we bought it from
the Mexicans. Now we are trying to give it back to the Mexicans. I think
some ting wong here.

What's to envy ?

And you'd be different to any other citizen in a developed country how
exactly ? Were you under the impression they only have houses and
universities in the US ?

Good for you, shame most of your compatriots don't. What's the US
national debt again ? 3 *TRILLION* dollars I think ?

It's interesting how you blindly extrapolate "wouldn't want to live
there" to "hating the USA" big assumption there m'lad.

Been there a couple of dozen times at least (without pulling my
passport out and counting). I don't hate the US. Wouldn't live there
in a million years though (despite several job offers that included a
visa).

<snort> Maybe the citizens of the third world do, don't confuse
Mexicans with Aussies.

I'll bet you can count on one hand the countries you've been to
outside the US, and they're probably Mexico, Canada and a couple of
Caribbean countries who are all but part of the US anyway. Right ?

Sorry, but contrary to the self satisfied American smugness, the whole
world DOESNT want to live there. Who would want to live in a country
chock full of bible hugging gun carrying rednecks ? The two parts of
your country that most Americans disavow as not being "the real
America" are the only two parts of the country worth a bent dime (NYC
and California)

But I'd have to live in the USA. When you leave can you get the bike
converted to Right Hand Drive?

Mate, even here in the West most people wouldn't admit to having kin in
Mandurah.

Does a year in the USA in 69-70 count? I don't believe you have any idea
what freedom is. The first two freedoms you don't have is freedom from want,
and freedom from religion. I couldn't image wanting to live in a country
that has no public health scheme and no old age pension plan as every
citizen's right.

Just saw no country for old men; the brothers Coen postulate an alternative
solution to the deficiencies you mention; messy but effective.

If you can get an interpreter for the rural texan dialogue or go to aversion
with sub titles, Tommy Lee Jones' character has some interesting social
commentary.

But I'm still gonna ride monument valley one day (or night).

Nice place to visit but wouldn't want to live there.

I met some people in Mandurah who knew the bloke in Townsville who made
my saddlebags.

What, you don't live in a humpy, and recite lessons in the open air?

(I've lived in a 3 sided shed, does that count?)

But how much of that is importing oil and selling it cheap? And how
much is in Chinese hands? At least we admit we are owned by others

I don't hate the USA. Bits of it have good scenery, other bits of it
have brilliant scientists and hackers, there are good singers and
painters and some stunning buildings.

But live there? Umm... well Skud and MikZ seem to manage, and Mum
loved her time in Chicago, but "the Paraguay skies and the nights so
cold, you can forsake your country and lose your soul" some how I
think I'd not be happy there.

I might want to stay in Canada, as long as it was in the bits where it
didn't snow that often. I could possibly stay in the UK if I had an
obscenely high paying job.

But die to stay in the US? Pull the other one it's got bells on.

Freedom is one of those words that means what you want it to mean. I
suspect that I'm freeer in the current Australian climate than anyone
living under the Patriot Act for example. Freer than anyone living in
a country that has de-facto religious tests for office in some places.

But hey, I didn't choose to live in Oz, I just got lucky enough to be
born here. I suspect the people to ask are the ones who *did*
choose.
