OK, I'm speaking as an Englishman and obviously the UK has in the last couple of years exited from the EU. the new Italian leader seems keen for her country to do likewise.
Leaving the EU is regarded by some US commentators and politicians as an insane example of extreme self-harm. But I wonder how US citizens would feel if they were members of an EU-style institution encompassing all the countries of North and South America.
Would US commentators really feel it acceptable that Chilean politicians should get a say in how many hours a a week US citizens work in the US?
