This comment perfectly explains why Brexit has left the UK's young feeling so devastated

57. Ok, for you folks who think the EU is all great, imagine it in the US

Imagine the North American Union. The US congress could not control the value and distribution of our money, our trade and our borders. That gets decided by a group that has about 70 persons representing your entire country (about 10 percent of the total seats). In a North American Union, we would probobly get at least a third of the seats, I would think.

Every person who gets into Canada or Mexico gets into the US.

Mexicans and Canadians can come and go from the US without any paperwork or control. We could all go to Canada and use their free healthcare as could People from Mexico and Canada come here and work or use our costly health care.

Do you think any corporation would remain in the US when it would be so much cheaper to move to Mexico for cheap labor or Canada where they don't have to pay for their employees health care?

Now that I think about it, some good could come from a North American Union as long as we don't go for the lowest common denominator like most trade agreements.
