  Comparing what works in one with what works in the other is meaningless at best. The idea that any of these concepts could be generalized between the two is silly.

    I didn't say it worked, rather I said it kinda doesn't because it's so limited compared to where people get their ads nowadays. It also wasn't really meant as a comparison, more of a segue into a discussion around if the huge ad spending and influencing is good or bad.

    Ah, scale-ism. ;-) I can't instinctively imagine how the size of a nation could realistically impact the results of this particular decision (banning political ads). Could you perhaps propose a realistic theory?

      Well, there's an enormous amount more money to be made in the United States with political advertising, so you're going to get a great deal more pushback from advertisers on any such attempt /s
