Britain Stuns the World

England has voted to leave the European Union causing US and world markets to plummet.

They had an amazing 72% voter turnout. If only we could have such a turnout here in the US. 52% voted for them to exit the EU. I wonder how much of this is a result of mass immigration....

I think it has more to do with being fed up with government/corporate take over of the world economy. People have been getting screwed for a generation and I think the sentiment is that "if we all gotta go down, then WE ARE ALL GOING DOWN."

I think it was more a case of people in Britain fed up with EU trying expand its control so much beyond the original concept of countries grouped together into an economic union.

Pretty ironic considering Britain's imperialistic past and present. It's going to get interesting if Scotland and Northern Ireland want to separate from the UK.

Close to 100% if you also include the financial impact of Obamaish Socialist countries like Greece and Spain.

Not really ... I would like that myself.
The closer the Government is to the people, the better.

Surprisingly Greece is talking about exiting too. How do they think they could survive if they had to pay their own bills?
That is hilarious ... Socialist systems do not work unless they have resources to fund that kind of system.
Sweden and Norway comes to mind and it works there because they have great natural resources the Government can leverage.

Sweden might be next to exit. They are like a Scandinavian Great Britain. Their immigrant problem because of EU policies is making a lot of people angry.
