It's also a result of not having a Constitution as ironclad as the US' is that is composed mostly of negative rights. That's why we had to make a fucking Constitution, because we knew the government would try to do shit like this.
There's no "The government SHALL NOT" in their own laws, and their parliament can easily change what is in their "constitution" to do whatever the fuck they want, and their threshold is lower than ours.
I don't think any other country in the WORLD has a Constitution that puts chains on the government from abusing its power. Yes, we know, the current administration is doing that, but just imagine, our government would become as bad as the UK, German, or French governments if we DIDN'T have those chains in place.
I will never relocate to a country outside the US because we are a unique nation that actually has a document that limits government from expanding at a rapid pace and adamantly protects free speech. Having to interact with people from various countries I've learned many people in other countries really don't have the kind of protections that we have despite being "first world".
