Yes, as has happened elsewhere in the world, we have elected a government based on fear, FUD, protectionism and anti-immigration.

I don't support us sitting on a throne of riches, leaving the rest of the world to deal with the problems, though. This is of course my personal belief, but I also think not doing it this way is shortsighted and will leave everyone, including us, worse of in the long run.
