Australia has relatively strong unions, sensible gun laws, and single payer health care. That’s where the good news mostly ends.
It’s possibly even more corrupted then the US Government in how beholden it is to it’s oligarch class, and it’s mass media market has only two companies. One of which is the Murdoch press (News Corp), and they are actually slightly less evil and corrupt then their one competitor, Nine News/Entertainment.
They have also privatized their water supply to a large degree to benefit the cotton industry, so it’ll be interesting to see how, or if, they’ll even try to remedy this situation.
