America is inherently conservative, regardless of what people may think. The attitudes front as liberal or very progressive, but the underlying nature of an American is conservative. You will see/hear VERY loud outliers which presents otherwise, don't be fooled. Hence why Nevada is the only state out of 50 where brothels are legal.
Dope smoking medically in just a bit over half the states, but even some of those extremely limit the THC intake. I think only a select few offer recreational or are considering it. Big tax $.
Tell ya to fuck off ya southern lunatic! Open carry happens all around, but it's only primarily popular in the south and "Bible belt".
Other than a few points I would beg to differ on, you're mostly right. Especially about the sex work. It's insane the amount of criminal activity is taking place and so little being done about it. It's not even your average Joe's who are most to blame, it's mostly the very wealthy who promote and sponsor this grotesque practice.
They charge in US dollars! Also avoid these two, one blew the other and both discovered world fame for the wrong reasons. They both went on to star in other films. One did a porn takeoff called "Four Weddings and an Orgasm"!
Sorry for steering off topic, doll. My bad.

If you add tips and sales taxes in the US, one can expert to pay almost 68c/dollar with, as you say, much less essential services and infrastructure than Australia. Americans are screwed with their prioritised spending back to front. The amount of money wasted on defence plus the obscene salaries of professional atheletes and celebrities is a clear indication of how screwed the average worker is in the US. They ‘live to work, not work to live’ and the term ‘working poor’ best sums up the average American.Dope smoking medically in just a bit over half the states, but even some of those extremely limit the THC intake.

Open carry.... Ask a northeastern American about their open carry.
I, for one, adore what Australia offers. But, in turn, the taxes are way different. Taxes in the U.S. (for average earner) is much much lower than AUS, but there's less available or on offer in the U.S. by way of services. So it's catch-22. Cannot have low tax and everything offered. If Americans were willing to cop a higher tax for healthcare, infrastructure, etc.. it'd work. Surely. But again, conservatism and "muh rights" and "tax is theft" is too engrained.
