Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Brexit

A dramatic and impressive argument against Brexit by PM Cameron. Watch it.


Good arguments, but count me a skeptic. Why vote for serfdom to Brussels? I do like the Parliamentary system though, compared with ours. Much more fun.

" I do like the Parliamentary system though,..."

You don't like the people being sovereign? People forget that the British people do not have rights except as granted by Parliament. Sure they've got Magna Carta and the Bill of Rights but Parliament rules.

On the other hand, it would break up the delusion in the US that our parties are not also parties of special interests.
