    With yesterday's exit of the UK from the EU, do you think others will follow suit, and if so, which nations will be next to leave?

    Also, do you see forced immigration as being the impetus of the reasoning behind the UK and others, or is it financial, or just the need to be free of the EU and or, Brusels?

    I tend to think the UK is fed up with the Muslims taking over their country. But, others may see differently.

    I may (or not) have written this earlier, but I was speaking with a Brit friend of mine earlier this week before the vote. I asked him about his take on it. He told me that it was not so much about immigration as it was about the U.K. submitting to dictates by unelected rulers in Belgien.

    And I think that it may be possible that Sweden will eventually leave, but I think it unlikely.

    Thanks Rolfe! I had heard that too, as well as the immigration problem! Your insight is good!

    I think it was a combination of all you said, but mainly they were sick of being controlled by the globalists. I think this really makes the globalists very mad and they will retaliate somehow in a big way. This maybe the poke in the eye to the evil elitist's that run the world. It will be interesting to see what happens. It may happen soon to keep the others in line.

    I agree with you. I have to laugh at the anger coming from the WH. Yesterday Biden said this was a "racist" vote, condemning Muslims. Obama is even simmering. They know if Trump wins, the free world may be on the cuspis of major change world wide. The people are tired of eating the cake crumbs. Did you see where Meryl Streep is a guest of Michelle and the taxpayer for a trip to Africa? Ever since they've been in the WH they take the friends and classmates of their daughters on exoctic, taxpayer funded vacations around the world. That is gall!
