That's fairly accurate as far as I'm concerned. Britain ranks highly as well, some of its Uni students notwithstanding. ( [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif])
A desperate disease requires a dangerous remedy.

A major source of objection to a free economy is precisely that it gives people what they want instead of what a particular group thinks they ought to want. Underlying most arguments against the free market is a lack of belief in freedom itself.

Only reason I'd never go to Australia is because of the apparently crummy ISPs with really low bandwidth limits that you talk about. =P

Australia doesn't have many "thugs" who can't speak coherently for the life of them, does it? That'd definitely be a big plus...

Actually my ISP recently introduced an unlimited cable plan for cheaper than my 3 gig cap plan... Go figure.

I'm going to have a gig a day down, 500 MB a day up limit at college, bleh.

Of course they don't actually shut off the connection then, just throttle your speed down to 64 kb/s *per connection* for the rest of the day.

LET US PLEASE CONTINUE TO GENERALIZE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ACCORDING TO WHAT WE SEE ON TV AND IN MOVIES YES PLEASE.

Most people don't know **** about other countries. My opinion on this kind of poll: retarded.

Though for the record, all the people I've known from australia were friggin' crazy. In the good way.

Anyone i have ever known from Australia (net and real life) was just SO cool, i would really like to visit Aussie land, and mabye then make a descicion to wether are not to live there.

I am not surprised really, if I had to chose a place to live instead of USA it would without-a-doubt-hell-yes-damn-straight-better-believe-it be Australia.

It's called statistics. You want them to phone up every person in the country?
