A wave of fear and doubt is being spread by the mainstream media and
establishment politicians around the Western world. Their goal is to keep the
status quo going, no matter the cost to freedom or economic prosperity. They
fear the will of the British people and sense their growing desire to strike
out once again on their own. I am of course talking about the upcoming
"Brexit" vote that is looming just over the horizon.
To the establishment, the growing wave of nationalism being seen in
Britain and the United States has them acting erratic. They are seeing many
of their carefully laid out plans falling to pieces from a source they never
thought would take the time to rise up and go against their overlords, the
masses.
The fact is, people are getting fed up. They are tired of seeing their
jobs exported and they are tired of envisioning a future where their children
have a lower standard of living. They are, plain and simply, just tired of
the system and the corruption that surrounds it.
Yet, it is not just the masses. Something that has shocked and stunned the
elite even more so is an announcement that was just made public. A collection
of over 300 UK CEOs has come together and is now backing the EU
exit initiative. They are now on board with the "Brexit" that the elite
are fearing so greatly.
This rightly should have the elite shaking in their boots, as Britain is
the world's fifth largest economy and a growing one at that, potentially even
overtaking Germany soon, as many analysts are now predicting.
This would be a major setback for their plans and could possibly even lead
to more countries growing a backbone and leaving the EU as well, potentially
destroying the highly flawed European Union in a matter of years.
This has led politicians such as David Cameron and Obama to go on the
global stage, claiming that this would lead to the destruction of Britain's
economy and possibly even World War Three as disunity spreads through Europe
once again.
This rhetoric is nothing short of pandering to people's primal emotions
and has no basis in reality. In fact, this, as Britain's CEOs who are
supporting the separation are saying, would lead to a boom for the British
economy as it sheds the "dead" weight of the less successful EU
countries.
A Brexit would not be a bad thing, nor a thing to be feared. It in fact
would be a huge win for those of us who support liberty and freedom around
the world.
The will of the people will be made known and the free market will break
free of the shackles placed on it. The elite are losing their grip on the
masses, but the fight is far from over! Fight on, liberty lovers - the battle
rages on.
