Scumbags would want to go back to a world of slavery, colonisation and wealth locked up as gold in personal treasuries.

That's some kind of weird hyperbole that doesn't make much sense.

I hope all the other countries follow suit and then the only thing we will be able to aim for is a job in these government bodies or the few surviving monopolies.

The rest of the world will ignore the EU, while the EU continues to dig its own grave.

> weird hyperbole

I agree. I can't seem to understand why would someone propose something as stupid as the linktax. So my brain came up with this weird reason. Nevertheless, the world will come up with something. It always does.
