7-year-old girl sells lemonade to help pay for brain surgeries, but Medicare for All is 'radical'

11. I dunno buddy

I can't get my head around an even marginally educated population accepting or rejecting such a momentous societal change over the use of 'spin words'.

I often compare and contrast the cultures and history of our two countries - both of which are youngish in the general scheme of countries. Oz has a reputation for cutting down tall poppies - "Ye'r up yerself...!"

The US deifies them. Maybe it's an anti-authoritarian quirk wrought by our convict past versus an admiration of entrepreneurship engendered by your first immigrants.

Maybe its our adherence to Brit roots and culture versus your total rejection of everything representative of the 'old enemy'.

Hey, I'm also glad you didn't change the second part of your username to JASS.
