the gun buy back is one of the better policies under Howard, but had bipartisan support. I wonder if our politicians will have the same maturity if something like that happens now, given the current personality politics being played out at the moment.
also worth remembering that America was born out of revolution/armed revolt against the British, so distrust of authority/government and self protection is part of their history.
agree with big corporations buying out capitol hill, but we are not that far behind here in Aust.
