Could Brexit Be A Catastrophe That Never Happens? (AKA Leftists are truly out of their minds)
Huffington Compost ^ | 6/29/16 | Ben Walsh

What if the craziest thing about the Brexit is that it never happens?

In the wake of the U.K.’s historic, market-shaking vote, financial heavyweights, commenters and the stock market itself are sending a signal that maybe, possibly, there might be hope that Britain’s departure from the European Union will not happen. The vote, after all, wasn’t binding, and it will be up to the next British government to decide if the country formally withdraws from the E.U.

Literally ... Something happened, it was witnessed, recorded and commented on. And come to find out, about half the world says otherwise.

These people are truly mental!

I've said it before on several threads, and I'll say it again here. Great Britain never merged the Pound Sterling into the Euro, so leaving the EU is simply canceling the automatic acceptance of any rules, regulations, and migrations that Brussels dictates. It will give GB a say in those matters, and a de facto veto over policies they do not like.

If another country such as France tried to pull out of the EU, they'd also have to pull out of the Euro, and that would be much messier and have much farther reaching economic consequences than GB.

Because the EU is comprised of unelected officials who “know what’s best for everyone else” and that, of course, is the liberals dream........

Doesn’t matter - the victory is won anyway. People all around the world now know they are not alone in wanting out of globalist hell, and it is catching on like wildfire.

The plunge in the markets is the closest thing to a no-brainer anyone is ever going to get in stocks - anyone who bought last Friday is making money already.....

The Deutsche Mark was the largest reserve currency next to the US dollar when they merged with the Euro in January of 1999. I'm sure the Germans have something in reserve in case the Euro collapses. I don't know about the other countries in the European Union. If the Euro fails they will be in for a long depression.

Less than a week in and the market has recovered about 60% of what it “lost”. Another fake crisis used to drain more value from the market.
