UK Brexit, questions from an American

[Ben Davis]

This is probably the best reply here.

Hey!

The problem with the EU is that it's almost a State, except it isn't, and sometimes when it tries to pass universal laws it doesn't work well.

Then how come so many of the laws have been implemented successfully with positive outcomes?

As mentioned, imagine how a state with countries mentioned by @Aractus would work out.

If it's anywhere near as successfully as the EU, those nations would benefit considerably.
