Because they have gone to better paying EU countries where they hold down wages. :Oh crap

The EU from the outset has made it plain it will enlarge itself by taking in any country who wants to join. Now all that's left are those who will sponge off the richer ones, such as get companies to move where labour costs are low, bring workers in from low wage countries to hold down wages, etc. It will mean the few richer countries will have to fund the whole of the EU.

Ahh so now you know how everyone in the US who didn't vote for Trump feels. Trump lost the majority vote and "establishment demoracy" elected him anyway...

Also your EU is working just like in the US, mostly rich populated states pay for all the dead beats. The dead beats are leech states that don't collect enough taxes to cover their own bills. Most of these dead beat states vote Republican...

many of them already have oligarch friend/s or already go to Saudis/ Qatar

Those indexes don't change, they use the same products to gauge costs of living regardless. So your reply is bullshit. A lot of the price rises is due to this.

From the 10% who live at the top of the ladder. Think back to pre-WW1 days to see how it works. Do you think the owners of the large mansion houses worried about their workers not being able to buy enough?

A good example is a Chinese factory worker isn't buying the same amount of goods a US factory worker does. This never stops the bosses moving their factory and relying on the Chines to made goods to be sold in the US. And don't forget the money is now in China so sales in China rise, buying Chines produced goods. If they bought the equivalent value of US goods, there wouldn't be a trade gap.


Economics isn't about imagining what if.

Economics isn't about imagining what if.

Economics isn't about imagining what if. For me, as a boss, it would be my robot. For the worker who I sack, it would be his life on unemployment. Don't have to imagine that as it's happening.

Whose vision, certainly not the man who is made redundant.

Western Europe is crawling with Eastern European workers of all types. It holds down wages.

I was thinking the exact same thing :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Since I live in the EU I frequently fly to A'dam to fuck ND whores, every Ukrainian factory worker is gonna be able to do so very soon. Homoland, beware, here we come!

On the subject: that voting was NEVER meant to be anything official. It's like a fucking Budapest Memorandum.

Hard to imagine even . . . It's the end of EU as we know it. They sit butts tight waiting for June the 11th.

So glad we voted out. Wish it wasnt 2 years of sorting things out though, id rather be out sooner. Let Germany pay Britain's contributions when we are gone. They are idiots anyway

Most of my UK friends are against Brexit. Just saying.

If the EU were truly democratic it would ask all the people in the old Common Market if they wanted to convert to the new EU which would then work towards taking Europe in a United States of Europe.

So far politicians of both sides rarely ask the public specifically want they Europe to be.

USE is utopia, IMO, same as World Government.

I like to think Poland has hands-down the cleanest prostitutes in the region! :1orglaugh

nico-t please don't run away see we finally have something in common.

You now understand why those of us in the US who didn't vote for Trump see him as a illegitimate president.

48.2% of the people who voted, voted for Hillary Clinton.
46.1% of the people who voted, voted for Donald Trump.

5.7% of those who voted, voted for a 3rd candidate.

Meaning 53.9% of American voters voted against Trump being president. So not only did he lose the majority vote to the other main candidate, he also lost almost an additional 6% of the vote to 3rd party candidates.. Clearly the majority of the people in America chose not to have Donald Trump as our president.

Yet, the "establishment" electoral college anointed him victory over the people's voice.

I'm glad you can finally understand what it's like to have your voice ignored while being part of the majority! It sucks right?

Yeah they are the minority in Britain then

That's because there is no direct election system in the USA. Electors vote for the peasants.

Are you seriously comparing your system of a representative democracy in one country to a centralized EU dictatorship overruling individual sovereign countries democracies and laws?

diffused by common sense and facts, sorry to disappoint :1orglaugh

They fought under the same rules. Clinton lost under those rules. If the rules had been different, the fight would have been different.

USE will be an expensive nightmare.

Already we see the richest few subsidising the poorest many. Add the migration effect that takes the low-skilled workers from the poorest countries and puts them into the richer countries. Causing more unemployment, lower wages and increased benefits.

EU migrants without a job make up city the size of Bristol

Three million EU migrants to keep benefits after Brexit in breach of Tory manifesto

Why take so many low paid workers with 1.6 million unemployed? The real level is said to be 3.5 million. Many low-paid in the UK get subsidies from the government so they can survive. Allowing big business to get away with holding wages down.

This is slowly bankrupting the UK, along with a few more European countries.

The EU refused David Cameron this proposal. Seems Merkel doesn't get the same treatment. https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...iming-benefits
