Australians actually ARE democratic socialists, if you want to play with that term. Medicare being the perfect example (but far from the only) of this - redistribution of wealth to provide better health services. Both major parties stand behind such 'socialist' policies.
@brentoneccles NO... that is whats been forced down our necks it not what we are..not real Australians . mabe your just to young to rememer when we ( Australians) took care of them selves. Not forced into a single party nanny state
@TheStoneKey Australians have voted for majority Governments with social[ist]-democrat style policies for generations. Australians like it, because it works. It's why we're among the most highly developed nations on earth.
@Chrisdt453 I wouldn't call it socialism but for the sake of the context of this video (it's title and description by the user) it helps to accept the supposition.
