While we all know that regular folks in advanced economies are upset and want change, it still is baffling to me that they chose change even if this ultimately hurts them.  So is the state of the world where the once improbable is quite probable. Shame on politicians who push ignorance in order to gain personally.

I too fear that the UK and EU could come apart, the sweeping madness that is running rampant in so many countries makes this a distinct possibility.
