Another blanket dismissal. Australia was a frontiersman country that was a post colonial UK state. Just like us. They had a frontier just like us. They fought aborigines just like us and that causeed very similar opinions towards minorities. Australians are notorious as being as racist as you 3. They, before the rebuys, had a very large number of guns. Both were mainly populated by debtors ie the indentured farmers and given the opportunity to pay off debts. The difference was between religious puritanical types that were sent here and more violent types sent to Australia.
All of your GOP WASP types that are anti-gun control come from a UK cultural background. Again we were a British colony. The principles that shaped the structure of government were heavily influenced by UK and French philosphers like Locke and Colbert. Adam Smith, a scot, is a central figure in our and their economic culture. Both banking systems are similar with central banks. Our fashion is heavily influenced by them and vice versa. The Cons ution was inspired by the magna carta. Our structure of central government is the same with bicameral legislatures and a bureaucrat in chief. We share the same language for s sake.
There are no better similes to US culture than the UK and Australia. Again, nothing will convince you because you are ideologues. Ignorant ones at that.
