Buy British!

What a great day for the people of the United Kingdom and what a wonderfully sweat and rare victory for sensible and responsible people everywhere.

I have to admit that I had my doubts that we would see a "Leave" outcome given (1) how long the U.K. has been within the EU, (2) all the fear mongering coming from the professional political class and the onslaught of "Nobel Laureate" economists, and (3) the distorting effects coming from the horrendous murder of MP Jo Cox.

BUT... the U.K. showed a level of courage that is nothing short of astonishing particularly considering how much "safer" it would have been to simply bend to the status quo,

WOW! Sociopathic statist elites everywhere must be quaking in their boots!

I got to thinking today that the U.K. is going to need our support particularly during their transition out of the EU when they will likely be most vulnerable to the thrashings that are bound to come from a Brussels seeking to make an example to other member states who dare to leave.

So, I say "Buy British"!

To that end, here is a great website for perusing British brands and buying British products and it even includes a pretty active blog on the subject including today's very interesting post on Brexit.

Possibly there are better ideas... travel, bonds, the pound even... who knows but even a token gesture seems sensible as the Brits deserve our support... they are a brave and inspiring people.

Brexit or Bust!

Listening to Professor Alan Sked address the LSE on his support for leaving the European Union, it's clear that this is a rare and critical moment in history where a population of largely free people can utilize the most basic democratic function of a popular referendum to reverse decades of propaganda and coercion and shove a corrupt system of central command-and-control straight up the rear-end of their super-state bureaucratic overloads.

If having the U.S.'s own statist-in-chief President Obama (a supposed "leader" who has a big Federal Government policy solution for virtually any and all "problems") make a special visit to the U.K. just to wag his finger at its citizens lecturing and fear mongering in support of staying in the EU didn't make you reflexively reach for the "LEAVE" lever, listening to Professor Sked enumerate the litany of clear reasons for the U.K. to regain its national sovereignty will surely do the trick.

Frankly, I have yet to hear even ONE argument for staying in the EU that couldn't be made identically for every other independent nation.... why not make the same arguments for Canada joining the EU... or the U.S.?? .. why don't ALL nations of the world simply join the EU so we can all share the great benefits of being within its one free trade zone while "benefiting" from its "superior" standards, regulatory environment and freedom of immigration?

Obviously, that is absurd and so is a defacto notion that the U.K. should stay in the EU.
