  1. I think this comment sums up your intelligence. If you think being a barista is a skilled job then you are very deluded. Monkey press button, monkey serve coffee.

  2. look dude, we are simply not going to agree on much that is clear. This whole thing is just a huge clusterfuck of stupidity.

    The EU project started out with good intention to promote peace and trade, it morphed into a power, wealth and sovereign transfer machine. I am proud that the UK voted the way it did although I do admit a lot of people probably voted leave for the wrong reasons.

    What will eventually happen is that all of Europe will go back to individually being sovereign states, they way it always was and should be. Once you start pushing back on democracy, peoples right to self determine and sovereignty you will eventually stoke violence. It took us hundreds of years to give our people power and we are not keen on giving it away.

    Don't forget Farage does not represent the British people.

    Another amazing fact about the EU parliament is MEPs cannot propose anything new or suggest changes. They can only say yes or no to what an unelected president proposes. If they say no it can just be changed until they say yes. Or they are simply threatened to tow the line or get reduced funding. The EU is anti-democratic.

  3. This was a really good suggestion for anyone who seeks to understand what is going on in the UK and the background of the Brexit vote.

    I have listed a few videos of Nigel Farage and his bio.

    I'll start out with his "you're not laughing now" speech:

    and continue in no particular order:









    I think he's great. Crazy, intemperate and dangerous...yes...but great... and is turning out to be surprisingly right.

    Switzerland never had nor has access to the single European market with the same privileges other European member states have.

    And if you wanna know about the state of affairs in Switzerland I recommend you to start thinking why Swiss chocolate and Swiss cheese is about 30-50% more expensive in Switzerland than Germany for example. The Swiss are literally flooding South West German towns to buy Swiss core products. Point being that I am not sure why you would cite a broken economic model like Switzerland where the living standard of the average Swiss is way not as high as their gdp suggests.

    That is such a fat lie. It is way lower than 70% and you know it. Shame on you.

    So then what are you complaining about? That an unskilled job no Brit wanted to take was taken up by a European migrant?

    Nice Farage brainwash. Are you possibly related? Of course can any members states suggest and initiate change. But you won't get a majority if you conduct yourself like a total asswipe like Farage did. Guess why he is just a barking pincher vs Merkel or Juncker. Farage is in a completely different league.

    Yes and because of the many desolate, unemployed, the ones who blame everyone else for their mistakes, the ones like you, who look to wrack the ship rather than fix it. Those are the people who are allowed to talk and share their hatred and stupid ideas like Farage and Trump. That is the new normal. Power to the stupid and liars.

    Like you today nobody feels obliged to stick to facts anymore. They just pull a number out of their asses and claim it's true JUST BECAUSE they say so

  9. Whatever your subjective judgement of the Swiss deal might be, I think it would be wise to wait for the outcome of the negotiations...
