Interesting response! I do enjoy our discussions very much. Hearing and understanding different perspectives is what has been proven to increase IQ. I'm not one of those types who only wants to hear an echo chamber.
You knew I'd say it, but we love Boris Johnson over here in the States =) about time y'all had a Prime Minister with testicular fortitude! Kudos to the English people for that.
Every country since joining the EU with the exception of Germany (funny how the EU was Hitler's dream for Europe) has done worse over time. Exports, GDP numbers, wage growth, unemployment rates, taxes, etc have all declined (taxes & unemployment have increased). Not so much in perhaps a few other countries like Italy and France (not anymore France is f00ked). The only thing keeping Germany somewhat strong is their exports and banking system (which is deeply in debt at this point as their Bonds yield negative returns for example). Germany's GDP is expected to be less than 1% for 2020 as well. Not good, not good at all.
History has proven each country having their own currency has benefited individual nation-states economies. So I guess Hitler got his dream, Germany would rise to the top, create the EU and run the EU. Like you lads would say, THAT'S FOOKIN MENTAL! Eh? =)
From an economic standpoint, the Pound is what has kept the UK afloat. Again, kudos to the English people for fighting to make sure y'all didn't adopt the Euro as y'alls only currency!
