Here's a message to the rest of the world: if it bothers you that America is so powerful that our votes affect your well-being, then maybe you should get off your scrawny asses and do something to make your own country more powerful. You'll never succeed, of course, but there's more dignity in that than in whining to Americans trying to get them to undermine their own country.

If the British people could reject socialism, they could once again be a great power. Not as great as they once were with cheap colonial resources, but they would be such an economic power they could smack the rest of Europe around.
