So the reason voters don't vote say Green is becase they're enthralled to Americans ?

We have it quite good in Australia, for the most part. It could be SO much worse.

We are the country that is likely to be worst impacted by climate change and the collapse of civilisation. As pointed out by Donald Horne in the 1960s, (paraphrasing) we're a nation of gormless twats who elect mostly fools. At age 60, all I have ever seen is that writ large and worsen as we ignore a litany of experts on health, drugs, the environment, climate change, agriculture, inequality and on and on.
