After 3 months all the Brits who rushed to Florida, full of that Holiday/vacation Euphoria, would be rushing back to Blighty. They would soon find out the Grass is not greener". No job, No Medical, Insurance, Outrageous Auto Insurance, bad schools etc, backward laws.
Prudish peoples that read Guns & Ammo but ban & cover up Maxim, GQ & FH mags. Preach, how good they are, how righteous" they are.
But it's okay to go out & shoot Bambi, just for fun.
Still there would be many Americans rushing to the Cotswolds, Lake District and Central London. They all would be looking for some Culture & to escape the far greater gun crime in USA, hurricanes, tornado’s. 300 pound woman In shorts.

"As far as illegal immigrants, yes there are many doing menial jobs for low pay to extremely low pay and they and their families are met with countless impassable blockades in regards to education, employment, law enforcement.. not a pleasant existance. [/QUOTE]"
I know tons of illegals here in Colorado, USA, and I have never met one that works for less than the minimum wage. Regarding law enforcement, they just use a different set of fake identification each time they are stopped and rarely have a problem.

"My wife loses £1500 per month from her wages for health care, taxes and 401K, they didn't mention that in the brochure."
The 401K is just a savings account. She can cut it out and her monthly income will be bigger.

After all, the UK has culture, castles, narrow roads, great schools, minimal sunshine (we Americans sunburn easily), and best of all.....no 300lb women in shorts. Everyone knows that the 300lb women in the UK all wear tents like proper 300lb women should. And just imagine the "euphoria" amongst the native American population! After all, they would finally be getting their lands back.

Re, the roads, UK far far far superior to USA. Travel anywhere in England by freeway, no pot holes.
jabba, don't know where you live, but you have never been on 1-95 Boston - Miami, it's a disgrace. More than half is 2 x 2 lanes (1800 miles), looks like Circa, A1 A2 A3 UK 1950's. Please wake up look & listen.
Guess what, I just traveled 800 miles in UK in and around the City of London M1 M2 M3 M25 M30, never saw a Pot hole. Come to NYC, we have pot holes that are so deep, people put Garbage Cans in them. Some are 3’ deep. Please wake up look & listen.
Jabba, sorry to say you are obviously USA blind & have been severely indoctrinated. You know get to hear on the news, from the Mayors, the Governers, the President, Best City in the best State in the best country in the World. Wake up Jabba, because they keep saying it, does not make it true. Have you ever been to France/Belgium/Holland/Germany/Spain, they have freeways & cars that make the USA look like a third World Country. New York is the Capital of the 3rd world.
Frank R. Have a nice Day

You know, Jabba every time the Native American Indians open a Non Tax paying Casino, it makes my day. It was their country first. Glad they are getting a little back. You robbed & murdered them, then made history books that lied. Remember Col Custer. Big Hero.

Nope, don't have the money to travel to all those places. But, if it'll make you feel any better, I do have plans to visit the UK and perhaps France sometime in the next year or two. I already have my passport and my tourist visa's in the works. For what it's worth, my parents came from Germany, I have realatives living there, so I'm hoping to go to Germany as well. What with the US being a primitive 3rd world country and all, I'm surprised you don't have plans to move back to the UK.

We don't have 300 pound women here in the UK because they can't fit down all the little streets....

Jabba, read my threads and replies. Never said I’m going back to UK. In-fact stated clearly I'm here to stay “Mid 80’s�. Somewhat surprised that you constantly snipe UK & Europe, but have never been there. Guess like as I said, you believe everything your Government tells you. The rest of us believe what we see and can make up our own minds.
Still my main reason for staying is simple, If all the Europeans leave, you will have absolutely NO culture or couture left. It's the only thing that makes this country livable there are lots of Europeans.

Your staying for charitable reasons, frrussre? How kind of you to help out a primitive backwards country like the US. Any chance you could get the Brits to let us have some of their fine autos, that way we can stop riding around in horse drawn carriages over here.
