As an American I have lived my life as part of an ongoing social science experiment. That's what the (old, white) men who wrote our Constitution were doing-- they were concocting a system from a set of abstract ideas. Other countries have since done the same thing, of course, but until the European Union all of these concoctions have endured with or as a result of horrifying violence and the loss of life. The EU, imperfect though it is, has been different, and I am very disappointed that a majority of British voters have decided that they no longer want to be a part of this remarkable thing.
