With the attitudes of some of the people posting to P&OC (not you), I'm surprised that some of those people can stand to live here in the U.S. for another day.

It's a shorter flight !


Not sure I would pick AU , it seems like every critter there wants to kill you. And the spiders... have you seen the size of a Huntsman spider ?! The place is filled with nightmarish creatures. Not even the hot blonds , with accents that can out drink you can offset that.

In conclusion, despite what liberals would have you believe, we don't suck!

Maybe we should ship out the liberals here who hate America and replace them with people who are desperate to come here.

Not many millionaires or big world-changing companies in Australia.

The big boys come to the USA. if you want socialized medicine and mediocrity, maybe Australia is for you.

The weather is brutal hot in the summer, but everyone has air conditioning, and it is mild in the 70s during the winter. The notion that everyone is a terrorist there and you are forced to convert to Islam is completely false.
HAHAHAHA! "Free" healthcare. "Free" college.

I love how some people think ANYTHING is "free."

Yeah, you move to Saudi Arabia guy. Let's see it.

Tall Traveller is a conservative. Pretty right-wing, from what I gather after reading his posts all these years.

But most of the people "desperate to come here" are the ones conservatives usually say they don't want here.

This is a dilemma.
