I don't think they'll actually honor the pledge and if they do they won't honor the result but I think most in the UK are fed up with the EU...and maybe Labor and the Tories.HMS Defianthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10024721130102173694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6198442674791729773.post-27205330528192610572013-07-07T01:15:08.785-04:002013-07-07T01:15:08.785-04:00I agree that they'll vote to withdraw but I be...I agree that they'll vote to withdraw but I believe the apparatchiks will simply ignore the vote and stay in.<br />I remember hearing on NPR of all things, a concise forensic analysis of what happened to cause the banking collapse a few months after it happened. It was the movement of something like 20 or 200 billion dollars in a few minutes late in the day that acted very much like progressive flooding in a ship. Tiny trivial amount with vast enormous second and third order effects. I have never found that clip and I've looked. I think if we all knew who did it, we'd kill him. All the banks of Europe failing because they loaned money they did not have to governments who had no money either.....who didn't see what would happen? At least when the S&Ls went under the FDIC stood up and paid up exactly as promised. One could reap real money out of interest if one moved it out of the account every month and kept the $ amount of each account at the FDIC max.<br />As you say. It will be interesting.HMS Defianthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10024721130102173694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6198442674791729773.post-80269605676556092252013-07-06T12:22:25.972-04:002013-07-06T12:22:25.972-04:00I'm betting the UK votes to withdraw, which wi...I'm betting the UK votes to withdraw, which will put Cameron's gub'mint in between a rock and a hard place, given Obama has "warned" Cameron NOT to withdraw. Not that Cameron really gives a big rat's ass what Obama thinks, or at least he SHOULDN'T.<br /><br />That Irish bank article makes me think the Chinese curse has come to pass: We live in interesting times.Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05319116022465066060noreply@blogger.com
