Save us, EU. You're our only hope. Sincerely, USA

Actually probably not. Not without major concessions. The pound will have to go which they will never accept unless they have absolutely no other choice

The concessions are the same as for any other EU member, which is fair

Why does the pound have to go?

Because countries that join nowadays have to adopt the Euro. Denmark, for example, joined when that was still allowed, so they still have their DK.

This keeps happening—can you lot make some laws for a change?

It's cool I fixed it now.

America, moments after outlawing IVF

Just as an aside, I'm an American that emigrated to Canada. My province (BC) is currently passing a law to make one attempt at IVF free for everyone (starting midyear in 2025)... laws actually can be used for good.

In America, laws can also be used for good. Just not your good.

Yeah this is cool and all but how can it benefit the wealthiest people in the country more? ✊💦✊💦

I'm very happy to hear that at least some in the US understand what is being done to them
