    Maybe one day, the land of personal freedom and Liberty can have a small amount of the personal freedom and Liberty often declared by the “globalist big government” EU.

      EU: “This violates human rights”

      US: “Human rights? What are those? Are they in the constitution?”

      Yeah, I wish the US could get some of those mysterious rights
