I think some people, which is unfortunately a lot of people, are really, really, thick. When it comes to this. Even now after a year of debate, they still don't understand.
Some countries like Switzerland and Norway do just this for good reasons. They have calculated that the disadvantages of doing so are significantly outweighed by the benefits. Both countries seem to be doing quite nicely.
