Australia Vs. New Zealand

[Pokelintock]

I am a New Zealand citizen who has lived nearly my entire life here but understand the politics and financial struggle that it goes through.
Like many others I believe that New Zealand is the Europe of the Southern Hemisphere, bearing lush forests, snowy wonderlands, calm oceans and beautiful beaches. It has it all, in terms of the most relaxing country to be in because you've got it all packed into two moderately small islands, with lots of room to spare.
The wild-life is, too, among the most unique in the world and unlike Australia is free of many intimidating pests, like snakes and bats etc..
All of these things is what Australia lacks in some ways. Although it is still big, vast and beautiful is doesn't have such a large variety as New Zealand. Making New Zealand's nature possibly a whole lot better.
But ofcourse what New Zealand lacks in, that Australia has too much to give is the city life. Sydney for example is one of the most stabily financially and beautifully rounded cities in the entire world. Full of raging business and a plentiful economy it is made famous for the wealth it derives from its many natural resources like Iron, Gold and the World's finest and richest Uranium.
So would you chose nature at an expensive and seemingly un-copable price for some, or a good enough view blocked by a mountain of money and wealth.
Australia or New Zealand?
I am torn between the two. :shrug:

1. It has three islands, counting the Stewart Island, common mistake though xd

2. If you're saying that New Zealand is a beautiful place but is ruined by financial difficulties, I agree with you, but it is a relaxing and very outstanding country.

Australia is financially stable, it is a rich country, but to me it's using it's money for the government and not the country itself, only in my opinion though.

I prefer New Zealand over Australia, not just because I live in New Zealand, it's because New Zealand is a very calm and peaceful place with lots of things to do.

One of the Youngest Countries in the World and the most Natural in the World according to statistics(where?)

I grew up in Oz and NZ.

I implied the fact of the features I gave were within the two main Islands. It wasn't a mistake, I am well aware about the country I live in. And secondly a country is run by it's government and you resent Australia falsely and forgive them for doing what's best for the country they run. But fair choice.

Sorry but I don't know if you're trolling or not.

If you aren't I feel sorry for you.

New Zealand is a country colonised by the british a long time ago, it was once inhabited by the native people of Aotearoa (Maori name for New Zealand) who were Maori, and before that, Moriori. Maori people still live in New Zealand, and the language and culture of Maori is studied by students in NZ. Although there are not that much full-blooded maoris left in Aotearoa, they are respected and are natural citizens. New Zealand is also inhabited by a lot of foreign people. Asians, Samoans, Tongans, Pacific Islanders really.

Hope you learned something. For more reference and information, visit Wikipedia.

1. You could've made that clearer though.

2. I mean that the government is using it's money to pay off workers more than they use it for making parks, etc. Actually right now, I think that Australia would be suffering a financial riff from their natural fatalities.

I didn't have to because the fact there were two islands or three was not the point I was making. Was it? Paying off workers is what they do by lowering their tax rate because they can, and the Government isn't their employer. And get your facts straight Sydney and Melbourne like I said are beautiful and vast and have many many more parks than New Zealand within the beautiful cities. Go there before you criticise it.

1. Just because it wasn't the point you were making doesn't excuse you from the fact you were wrong. Irrelevant statements doesn't make a difference to me.

2. So if the government isn't their employer who is? Their boss? Their boss is being payed by the government so it's just a chain of salary. All the money you get kind of roots from the government. IMO anyway.

3. Yes, you are right about that. I just resent the fact that Australia can attract so many people and things. It's bullshit.

Also, by lowering tax rates, it saves you money, it doesn't earn you it.

EDIT: Unless you are part of the government body you do not get payed by the government, but by the customers or the consumers that help you raise our business and further improve it.

Just admit it.
You're another Kiwi that hates Australia and its exposure to the world.

So you're assuming that just because I don't like Australia I'm automatically a Kiwi? Stereotypical.

Um...ok...

So you don't hold a NZ Citzenship or permanent residency?
You claim NZ in most of your posts.
Correct me if I'm wrong, you did say you grew up in NZ.
