WTF people? Since I've been gone (less than a year) the US dollar has fallen considerably.

Why is the AU dollar worth more than the US dollar? This country has only 30 million people!
Sh!t is EXPENSIVE in Australia ($4.00 for a carton of eggs expensive) but it is looking better and better looking to stay here long-term only because of the national pride. People have pride in domestic workmanship like I haven't seen in America since the 80's. All meats, agriculture, clothes and production (short of electronics) are manufactured domestically, which ensures not only tax revenue but long-term economic stability.
In addition, this county has so many natural resources that it could self-sustain for decades to come. The only thing holding it back are the environmentalists, who think that a country of 30 million are seriously effecting global climate change .
I don't even need a cell phone or cable TV living here. It really is like living in the 1950's America out here, except for the $6.60/gal gas prices (but it's 95 ocatane! )
I am a veteran and love my country, but it is really looking more and more like America is going down the sh!t hole. Please give me some positive feedback that will make me want to come back.
