MODERATORS
I'm of the same mindset, at least for now. It's a combination of 2 things.
Pride/ego is a big one for a lot of people.
The second one is the economic hit of the transfer. There will be 2 big jolts. Bringing our economic cycle fully into line with Europe, and the greedflation that will occur with the price changes.
Right now, we are in a bit of a crisis. The rich have pumped too much money up and out. The lower working class are right on the cliff edge economically. The jolt will be felt worst by them. Right now, I wouldn't be surprised if it could completely crash our economy.
Don't get me wrong, for the benefits of the EU, I'd personally swallow my pride on the matter. The economic effect would be scary, particularly with the current caliber of MP at the helm.
