Passing Brexit was a Mistake for the United Kingdom

Thank you so much for your great and well thought out points. I can see you did your research! I come from an outside point of view (meaning I am not a part of the UK), but I try to keep up with the affairs of the country since I intend to move there in the near future. I'll begin by acknowledging what you said about the economic downfall of the country as a whole due to the passing of Brexit. I believe you are absolutely right, and I will not contend your reasoning. What I will contend is the fact of a lack of faith in a country that could potentially become a great independent body. Let's talk a little bit about the EU. You said a lot of really nice things it does for the UK, but I believe those things are a temporary fix that hold certain consequences in exchange for the EU's services , meaning if the UK left the EU, the UK would eventually land back on its feet again, only without the crutch of the EU being there. In my understanding and research, the EU creates a bloated bureaucracy that just doesn't handle well when it comes to things such as border control, cultural defenses, and excessive regulation. It is a fair fear and logical one to be afraid of terrorism. Their open boarders were an issue. Put it this way: Imagine being an American and having open boarders, particularly after the scare of 9/11. It would be terrifying to say the least. So, of course, safety is an issue, especially when you are dependent on it, and the EU is doing a lousy job of isolating terrorism. An independent UK could provide this amenity so much better and more efficiently with control over its borders. Now I'd like to talk about documents. The EU's constitution is just...Well, huge. It's hundreds of pages long, very confusing, and it displays an almost sharia-like regulation on all aspects of human life. The lack of a real separation of powers invites the abuse of power, especially with a constitution that is so complex. Once again I am going to compare the EU's constitution to the US's constitution (I'm not being bias I promise, I just want to compare how the two work separately). The United States constitution works really well, and it is because it is very short and very easy to understand for all citizens so as to retain their rights and understand their government and privileges given to them. The United States is not a perfect country, but its citizens absolutely fight more for their rights because they know their constitution. The UK weening off of the EU gives them an opportunity to set up a much better and less corrupt/easy to corrupt constitution that enforces the main laws and that isn't dominated by lobbyists. The separation of powers is almost non existent it seems in the EU, and that leads for corruption. There are many different reasons for becoming an independent country, they can range from freedom of speech, to national boarder protection, to even having a national sense of pride. Being an Independent country is a beautiful and a well sought after ideal. I think that there is a mountain to get past that most people are to scared to go over, and that is the economic and relation- losing implications that come with leaving the EU, but sometimes you have to have a little vision of what the future can hold. All good things come after hardships, and to become an independent country, the UK will most certainly feel the brunt of their actions--at first, but as time goes on, the UK will form relations again, they are a well respected country that holds a lot of power in Europe. The economy will come back, and the people will be more independent, more free, and more able to establish themselves as an almost new country of sorts. If people could only look past the dark days, they would see a light at the end of the tunnel for the UK. I agree with you, the UK is going to hit some hard times...Some very hard times. But it is worth it in the end to become an independent, self sustaining country.
