I urge you to read outside the USA to get a different perspective.  Magaret Thatcher was wary of the EU agreements. She believed it would shift the financial capital of Europe from London to continental Europe.  Today the Treaty of Lisbon might do just that.   Recently per capita British GDP surpassed that of the USA. This of course is not the case on the continent where protectionist sentiment brought near double digit unemployment. Will England go the way of the Netherlands?  The Dutch ruled the world in the 1600s, or did you forget that?

I have noted that Britain has already lost ownership of its auto industry.  Now as discussed here, TATA will apparently buy Jag and Land Rover. What does Britain control I wonder, other than its stock exchange?
