'Leaving the European Union and voting UKIP is not the way forward'.

As an American with Separatist Sympathies I have taken this debate despite only a general understanding of European Politics. How ever Given your opening points I believe that the general understanding is Adequate as separatism is at the heart of your desired debate rather than so much the intricacies of British Politics. Your main point consisted of the problems England faces with a Misbehaving 1% A problem the United States shares... if not far surpasses England in. The contention to make is a Nationalist England would have an even harder time reigning in the 1% and as a follow up you contend the Separatist aim s mostly to undo the advances of globalism.On the Secondary point you are correct, I will address this first because it ties into my response to your most practical concern. A (rhetorical) question for you is who of course do you believe is leading the push for globalism? - Who stands to gain the most from the current form and shape of globalism? ... The Economic 1% of course. The goal of True Globalism is one you and I share, but the current shape and form of Globalism is not "True" it is more of an excuse to exploit poverty in other nations with the added bonus to us ( in the west) of bringing some really cool communication devices. A broad argument against globalization I grant you, but consider the following more specifically to the EU-UK relations. The EU rather than being a union of producer countries or of consumer countries, is a mixed bag of the two which creates some fundamental currency problems. It would be different if EU had a more leveled economic field which was probably the initial point but one which has not been executed well. Producer companies such as Germany thrive under different currency policies than does a consumer nation. It is in the interest of a Producing nation to have a Strong Currency while it is in the interest of the consumer nation to have a comparatively weak currency, also different trade policies benefit Consumer v. producer nations. The EU is an attempt to be a 1 size fits all solution against a highly diverse group of people. While diversities in ethnics are irrelevant, what is relevant is Diversity in what the people of Europe Expect their government to do, In truth a good government is one that does what's expected of it. In the Current EU alignments the truly most benefiting industry across the board is the Financial... who like in the U.S. hold massive sway in politics and highly manipulate the currency to suite various ends~ this also includes manipulation of the debt public and private. This twisting of nobs and dials approach both in the U.S. and the E.U is wreaking havoc with 'natural' economics and is-in-truth the only thing propping up what we call in the U.S. "jobless recovery" or the "paper boom" ... in the U.K. I am not sure if you have a term for it but " Fuckall!" is appropriate. By now you know some of the basics, U.K. spends alot of money to be apart of the European union and it is semi-forced to spend a whole lot more money on propping the E.U. up, as are several other of the more stable member countries. Yes, the U.K. is comparatively stable.... which isn't saying much but still. With out the EU?Now it all comes down to leadership. Nationalist leadership, Unconcerned with International opinion and un anchored to international agreements COULD competently and quickly institute strong reforms to the Tax system ( solidifying it and leveling it) In the U.S. the most popular Tax reform policy is the Fair tax, which eliminates some of the fiscal supports to the poor but creates a 'fair' system where by there are few tax exceptions and the misbehaving 1% has few-and-far-less-effective legal options to avoid paying taxes. Other social concerns caused by that policy are some-what besides the point to this topic. The U.K. has options and strong nationalist leadership could go along way in stabilizing the U.K. and than strengthening its domestic production and consumption balance. Once again, leadership is the hinging factor in this side of the debate. Both in the U.K. and in the U.S. its hard to have faith in any of the politicians and its both fair and easy to be highly skeptical of them. How ever, collapse of the current fiscal regime is all but guaranteed and the question is: are you willing to risk your future on the gamble that a collection of loosely associated nations with vastly different needs,wants and expectations is going to pull it self together. OR... are you more comfortable making a stand in England,For England.
