Careful, she's also the Queen of Australia and a few other nations as well! You Yanks don't want to get the Commonwealth peeved with you, we'll stop bailing you out of stupid wars! Also, let's face it, you've got a far worse Head of State right now!
As for Universal Healthcare, I don't know how the US can claim to be a First World nation without it!

As I'm sure I've pointed out before, if you're going to have a Royal Family and a Queen as Head of State, it's a damn sight cheaper if they live in a different country! Royalty on the cheap, that's a pretty Australian idea!
Yeah, everyone says they don't need our help right up until everything hits the fan, and then it's up to the Aussies to save the day again!
BTW, I'm a Republican, and am in favor of dispensing with the Constitutional Monarchy that we have right now, but the Australian public were not happy with the model put forward at the last constitutional convention, so no Republic just yet.
And to quote Blackadder:
"God Save the Queen (King), because nobody else will!"

How about a new country consisting of New England and Quebec? That might suit me pretty well...

That's a great map though...
