Brexit arguments

If you try to look at the arguments for Brexit for any length of time with any basic understanding of economics, it doesn’t take long to realize the problems with all of them. With Brexit in full force are starting to see a decrease in wages, an increase in inequality, and a loss of jobs to European Union member states. They still haven’t dealt with the really big problem of having an open border on Ireland between the UK and EU, which threatens to reopen the troubles as soon as they deal with it. The solution has been an effective internal border in the United Kingdom, which is something countries just love to have!

So the economic arguments are all stupid, they always have been, they always will be, and the proof of their foolishness is just growing by the day.

What about the “loss of foreign power” argument? Well, let’s take a look at the recognition of Kosovo in this lovely map from Wikipedia…
