Re: Alternatively
so this is saying that Brexit is bad because the EU will demonstrate their vindictive dictatorial powers and commit economic warfare on Britain? Thus demonstrating what was wrong about the EU in the first place?
And therefore the best thing to do is, when threatened by large bullying dictators, is to play along and be a good little slave-state lest you upset The Master (and no, not the proper Delgado Master who no one should dare upset)?
The only people harmed by Brexit are those who solely profitted of EU membership. Who made money that could not be made without the EU sending in cash.
And now they're doing what they can to "punish" the country for cutting off their gravy train..which if this weren't "economics" with different rules, would be pretty much traitor-ish behavior.
And those Rulers across the Channel, well, gonna make an example outta you so no one else gets the same ideas, capisch?
Wasnt too long ago that Britain was known worldwide for giving the two-finger to a consolidated Europe that wanted to control it. Even when that meant damage both economic and explosive.
Now that the Germans won with money what they couldn't get with tanks, Brexit is no less an act of defiance than anything Churchill made speeches of.
The threat of reprisal should never be a *defense* for staying in part of a group that uses such threats to force compliance in the first place.
