Yeah, its pretty annoying. Our biggest and most pervasive import from the US is its media and popular culture. We need more aussie content on tv, and someone has to retrieve the aussie film industry from the shitter.
Your probably talking bout the similar election results though. The way that Bush and Howard both got back in after heavy scrutiny about issues such as Iraq and concealing the truth, and also the rise of the christian right aswell. Yeah, that side of things is pretty daunting. On the upside, people are more aware of the issues than ever before in both countries. We also have the internet, which is a bonza tool to a shitload of information.
