19.3 billion a year to remain in the EU (expected costs of membership and unemployment benefits around 170 billion a year), 29 million more foreigners now able to walk in despite our weakened economy and rising unemployment. To me it's common sense to leave, the costs vastly out weigh the benefits.
"Don't pay any more than you have to" If the cost out weighs the gain, leave it and look for a better deal. It's perfectly logical and sensible.
But common sense is a rare thing nowadays. Undecided

So yeah, I'm of the opinion to leave the EU. Tongue
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
