Europe should have stopped its integration at the old Common Market level. Never thought EU was a viable entity. It still doesn't make sense, as they painfully found out recently over border issues. Interestingly, Britain did not join the Common Market either. Not until 1973. Things have come full circle.
You want to break up the U.S.? I live in Washington state, I would just suggest we join Canada and let the rest of the country fight it out. We have absolutely nothing in common with places like the South anyway.
I wouldn't mind forcing Detroit and Chicago to leave the U.S., the way Greece should have been forced to leave the EU. Greece is basically the Detroit of Europe, a black hole for taxpayers and contributes nothing in return.

I can assure you you can move down there, speak English, spend dollars and even send your kids to school. You can even read the road signs and watch movies, all in English.
Some things will start happening faster than you think. I work in the corporate world and this will impact their offices, their subsidiaries; for example London's strength in banking is due to their position in the EU. London will not have that strength moving forward, it will likely move to Germany. Then Britain is what? Now look at large companies with employees in Britain. Do they keep those employees or do they get rid of them? This was passed by the least educated.
And Scotland will likely go with the EU and ditch the UK.
Exactly. Scotland will join the EU and leave Britain by itself.
Yep and yep, Sea. These things aren't even debatable. They're obvious facts to those who have a modicum of understanding about the world we live in.

Actually if you are going to look at it based on cost, the South costs the US far more than it contributes.
I will laugh at them when things turn to crap and many people start to regret it.
Stupid British.
When right wing fanatics win the result is always bad.
I guess you don't know what its like for people in working class British communities who must deal with the invasion of Eastern Europeans who steal jobs, drive down wages, and bring crime and drugs and suck the welfare system dry. I know what its like because i used to live in a part of the US where illegal Mexicans and Central Americans did the same.
And why should British taxpayers continue to subsidize Greece and the Muslim refugees that the EU is welcoming? Greece will never learn to manage its finances, and the Muslim refugees will keep on heading to Europe.

This post is awesome.
Because in the 1990s, when I had a lot of time and opportunity to spend in Europe, Europeans from every country used to lambast the U.S. for "not being nicer or more supportive" to the illegal immigrants.

Haha as if I would live in the South. Get real. But I don't want to get off-topic which is countries breaking up. If the US broke up, we live so close to Canada I would hope we join them and let the rest of the country argue among themselves. For the UK, the least educated voted for this and don't realize what they have done to the strength of London's financial markets by removing their role in the EU. London is not the banking powerhouse if they're only the bank of the tiny UK.
