AUS- Know they are better and dont give a shit and therefore dont rename it anything.
Educational-

AUS- Encourages students to learn at their won pace. To my Knowledge I know of no truency laws that have been drafted to keep students in school, they suprisenly go willinly (if any aussie find ledgislation stating otherwise please make note of it in comment Thanks you.)
US- Rides the big yellow dog to school
AUS- Rides roos to school (cause we're primitive like that)
Health Care-
US- Even if you have insurence you still pay our ass and wait in the docotors office room up to 3 hours.
AUS- Public medical care is free paid for by the government, the only medical not paid for is private hospitals and private doctor, though if an indivudal has health insurance, 80-90% will be paid of the bill. You dont have to wait that long in a doctors office.
US- Is destroying what welfare it has.

AUS- Has a natural large reef (Great Barrier Reef etc) And also creates them to improve the ecosystem.
Historical-
US- People of good standing came over and then over the centuries has fostered a large dangerous crime rate resulting in the over filling of criminals. Not to mention, more than one city in America is on the list of the most Dangerous Cities In The World.
AUS- Had Prisoners brought over from England and through the centuries has yet to have a large crime rate. Go figure.
US- Started a few wars.
AUS- Hasn't started any.
US- Desimated the native people living there resulting in the Indian Wars (look it up mates, its not a pretty thing) and pushed then out of their natural homes and in some cases calling for tribal genocide.
AUS- Settled well with the aboriginals though still some prejustice remains but is at a minimal.
Cinema-
US- Has to import actors/actresses because of the obvious lack of talent inside the states themselves (few acceptions)
AUS- Has to export because most American actors/actresses suck (Lets face the music Gladiator would not be the film it is today had Brad Pitt played lead).
Us- Actors have to have voice coaches to play regional accents etc, which by the way they suck at.
AUS- Just need to speak in a slightly retarded manner and they have nailed the American accent.
Governmental-
US- Democracy, where the people are the puppets
AUS- Common Wealth, where the Prime Minister is the puppet.
