Do the Dutch and the Brits have the same underlying factors as the US? The answer is "no" for most factors and "yes" for some factors.
Attempting to mirror other countries' practices only works when controlling for other factors and addressing a number of problems. However, the US struggles with gun control, reproductive rights, health insurance, public education, a living wage, and tons of other issues. When the US struggles for common ground in those regards it is impossible to mirror the Dutch and Brits.
