OT:
That's a myth. The fact is that:
Ripping the band-aid off is the lazy, painful, harmful solution.
- Ripping off the band-aid from a serious or partially healed wound can cause injuries and prolong healing and cause extra scabbing.
- The pain is actually not mandatory. The best method to remove the band-aid is pain-free, i.e. when removing a band-aid from a child do it with some planning and intelligence applied: medical alcohol will dissolve the adhesive and will also help disinfect, but simply taking a warm bath will also weaken the adhesive and the band-aid will peel off.
Nor is the analogy even remotely accurate: the better analogy for Brexit would be for example to unilaterally take the Netflix or Spotify apps out of the iOS single market. It sure won't increase Netflix and Spotify sales and revenue, right?
(And that would be a more justified move, because the iOS tax is 30% of revenue - while the 'EU tax' is only 1% of revenue (GDP), a good deal of which is recycled back into the UK.)
Anyway, March 29 is only 2.5 months away, so we'll all see the negative effects of Brexit.
Good to know. Now I wonder if the rethinking needs to apply to my trading and investing decisions.
