>>9278479 It really depends on what aspect you focus on. Australia is, by quite a few measurements, better to live in. The US has more power projection.

>>9278546 Should be about, actually. US (including Alaska and Hawaii) is pretty much the same size as Canada. Australia is 7/9ths the size of Canada. Alaska is 1/4th the entire US. So, vaguely 3/4 US = approx 3/4th of Canada. .75 Canadas is pretty close to .77 Canadas

The USA is the world's only nation able to balance both a Top 10 Population Size with a Top 10 HDI. More evidence of superiority vs. those countries which can only manage one or the other.
