NOBODY is forcing you or any Spaniard to serve English kids alcohol, if you don't like the way they behave DONT SERVE THEM its perfectly simple, they won't stop serving them though because they want their money, you make the bed, you sleep in it.
Okay, got it, we'll ask our customers to smile before serving a drink and the moment we see someone with horrible teeth we will deny them alcohol.
Of course, it occurred to me that Britain could increase the number of jobs for the working class...by substituting British products for imported products.
Easier said than done. Well, give it a shot. It may take a while before the british public decides it prefers local to import. Assuming of course that the local product is at least equal to the import in price and quality.
China is the second largest economy in the world. There are many rich people there. This is so commonsensical I don't even need to show a link you must be a hick if you didn't know it.
Also in terms of growth rates, EU has got the lowest growth among all continents worldwide... Rock bottom unless you wanted to compare with Antarctica penguins. It's a sunset continent which is why it's been resorting to protectionism to try to delay the inevitable. The U.K. Is smart enough to unshackle itself from a deadweight.
When did I ever argue that China isn't the 2nd largest economy in the world?
You didn't argue that it's not the second largest economy because that would be PURE STUPID you just took PURE STUPID down one notch to STUPID. China's population is massive so using per capita income is completely meaningless, it's the reason why countries like Monaco and Luxembourg do so fantastically with per capita calculations. Have you seen the Mickey Mouse population numbers of Monaco? China has about 20 times the population of the U.K. Its purchasing middle class is already bigger than the entire population of UK. Theoretically even if just 10% of China's population is poor and let's assign the poorest 10% to be the working class who perform low end manufacturing 10% of 1.3 billion is 130 million, more than enough people to do it. That leaves 90% of the population. The rest of the country has people far richer than you at a bigger volume than the United States and the middle class is burgeoning by the day unlike EU countries which are in the throes of depression since 2008 and cannot seem to wake up from their nightmare. Actually a big part of why they are still down in the dumps is because of the EU, but let's leave that for another day. Your argument was that it wasn't a viable trading partner for Britain based on "poverty".. Lol. Which can't be right if you seemed to know it's the second largest economy in the world. Countries trade with countries. Britain isn't going to be trading with one individual farmer. Your words were that you believe people there are all **** poor which clearly can't be the case then who's been the one buying up your country lol (whether you're American, Canadian this applies). Vancouver for example is already owned by ethnic Chinese people.

Yep
Growth rates flatline when they reach developed status.
Are you quite sure it's not the other way around? The EU you should to very nicely without having to drag the UK along.
The EU is a project for two reasons: for Germany to sell its goods and for power for accountability (in the hands of unelected people).
Since the UK was buying more than it sells the protectionist bloc is useless to the UK anyway. The U.K. contributes 15% of the funds when there are 28 member countries. There are tons of countries who have no ability to pay riding along.
The U.K. doesn't need the useless bloc of leeches. If anything they appear to be formed delay the inevitable. Who is gonna buy anything from unproductive countries like Slovenia, Latvia, Slovakia or Lithuania? What are they known for what are they good for? No one knows. Poll any economist randomly you can find worldwide and ask them what are Slovenia, Latvia, Lithuania good for? What's their economy about? Lol no one knows what the hell they do. Even China has one leading world financial center though with political autonomy under the SAR, and loads of industries on the mainland.
You are probably American with German ancestry, that's why you support the German invasion project so passionately.

Author indicates that the UK is over reliant on the export of financial services, and income from investments.
What happens when other nations learn to manage their own money?
British manufacturing has been in severe decline. Revitalizing industry may be key to reviving the British economy.
It is argued that substituting British products for imported products should be emphasized. And that the UK may need to practice...this will shock you...protectionism.
We are going around in circles because there are people trying to use shady sophistry.
Services is considered higher order than manufacturing.
And the same argument can be made for manufacturing: what happens when other countries learn to make their own stuff? Which in this case has already happened! Other than Germany, none of the countries are able to compete with the competitors all over the world on manufacturing. That's why they eagerly joined the protectionist bloc, and are the biggest cheerleaders for the project. I observed it's those from small weak countries (Finland) or the poor countries in Eastern Europe that are most defensive about the trading bloc online.. And people from the three bankroller countries: Germany, France and the U.K. are the ones dissing it. Lol

It takes more than "burgeoning middle class" to reach the "developed" status, (just saying.)
