Canada.
Nobody here will ever admit it, but Canada wants to be America so bad it hurts. The best analogy I can think of is that the US is like the cool older brother that you always tried to emulate, even though everything he did was stupid.
Our politics are a joke, but that doesn't stop people barking around about Canadian politics because they see Americans bitching about their government and want in on the fun.

Not a problem in Victoria, its about 50% white, 30% asian, and 20% other, so race doesn't come up too much, at least in my experience.Jack Macaque said:
Even though we're one of the richest contries, and we pay minimum 40% in taxes. (The rich pays up to 60%)
We still have minus in our budget, because of extremely dumb decisions made by the army, and other public servies. (They bought new helicopters, and planes for a billion dollars, which wasn't the plan at all)
Were did all the freaking tax money go dumb ****'s.

And the fact that the majority if Kiwis have the "she'll be right" attitude until something entirely foreseeable and preventable goes horribly wrong, then it becomes the absolute fucking over-the-top-baby-bathwater-nannystate-kneejerk overreaction from Nam.
That, and the cheapest 20 pack you can buy is over 10$. 50c a smoke.
I gotta quit.
The least you can get away with paying in Denmark is 40% of your income, and thats minimum (the max is 60%) so you have nothing to complain about. =XJack Macaque said:
The Tories tripling our higher education prices, Oh yeah thanks for that you posh cunts, just cos they never had to pay their own way, they can't understand it when other people do
America...
While Democracy is good for the people, we can't get anything due to lack of bi-partisanship. I guess what I hate most is almost every politician in DC. It takes a special kind of asshole to go there and think they can make a difference by talking to a room full of arrogant, unwavering fools all day.

Sweden.
The fact that we voted a racist/nationalistic party into a position of power.
How fear of being connected to said party makes criticism of organized religion (or rather, if Islam is brought up as an example) something forbidden.
I also loathe the current government, but compared to nationalism it's been downgraded from hate
