I wish people would refrain from posting these types of threads. My question would be: "is it your ambition to convince Americans with their philosophical, religious and political foibles to move to your country?"
Please consider that possibility very carefully before starting threads such as this one. You might have a nice country and I would think your main concern should be a desire to keep it that way.
good point. Come to think of it, one of the best things about Australia is that it's NOT America. The last thing we need here is a bunch of uptight ,arrogant, gun-loving, holier than thou, "our way is the only way" americans coming here ruining everything
For God's sake......you're comparing a country like the US -- with 320 million people -- to a country like Australia?
Australia has a population of 23 million and NO neighbors sending their trash across their southern border.
In short, no.
Ok, so why has the murder rate dropped so dramatically in places like Los Angeles where all this so called trash has moved in over the past 15 to 20 years? Formerly dangerous inner-city areas like South Central LA are no longer the killiing zones they once were. Immigrants from small towns in places like Mexico and Guatemala have brought their work ethic and christian values. Seems the place is camler than it was before the influx.
No LOL, LAPD got their act together and at some point even hired the police commissioner famous for making New York the safest big city in America. Mexican immigrants are big part of the crime problem.

Interesting how many Americans believe they live in the most prosperous country with the best governance etc etc etc. But in reality you come in at twelfth with all those liberal countries like Australia, NZ, Canada well ahead of you. Legatum ranking: U.S. slides out of top 10 most prosperous countries | Financial Post A house worth US $132,000 in flyover country, one can hardly compare with a house above Sydney Harbour can one ?
Yeah, but only 0.1% of Australians can afford that house.

You do understand there is illegal immigration in Australia don't you? Though your right it isn't from the southern boarder, given Australia's position it is mostly from SE Asia.
