It is scary to me how divided the country is about it for sure. Whatever happens, a lot of people are going to be unhappy. Not ideal.

I'm not going to be unhappy if we remain, it's like being unhappy about not finding some money on the floor. I don't expect England to leave the EU anyway.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.

It's interesting. Usually we get various celebrities threatening - or in some cases, promising - to leave the country if the vote doesn't go the way they want. This time, the people who want to leave will vote to stay, while the ones who are staying are saying they want to leave. If we end up leaving, the ones who said they would leave if we didn't stay are going to have to stay anyway, because they won't be able to leave since Europe won't want them, but staying won't be an option either because neither will we.
Anyone else got a headache?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

If they will indeed vote to leave, they'll notice after a while that the problems didn't magically go away and in some places might get worse. What to do then? Blaming the Immigrants sounds like a reasonable avenue in that case. Mark my words.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Nothing's going to change for the next two years anyway, because even if we leave it won't be ratified until 2018.

US, so I can't vote but would like them to stay, purely for selfish financial reasons.
Can someone give the pro's and con's so that I can be better informed?
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
