We used to travel to Europe and travel from country to country for an entire year. Now, we go to Europe and can spend no more than three months on the whole continent. I guess Iceland will be added to this. Why does Europe discourage long-term travelers from spending money there?

Quid pro quo. Do you grant the same benefits to EU nationals - all EU nationals - travelling your way?

What’s sickening is that the 15 million who voted against this and the 15 million who were denied a vote had their rights stripped because a few people who are now dead voted for “change”

What's this referring to? Dead people voted for change where?

[chgs]

In the 8 years since Brexit millions who voted for Brexit have died. Nobody under the age of 26 voted for Brexit, and more above the age of 26 voted remain than voted leave.

We are one country, Europe is an entire continent of countries. You would think there would be one that would want my money.

that doesn't answer OP question/point at all

also, legislation in EU is harmonized, i.e. all important legal bits between the different countries are the same (implementation might differ slightly)

Mostly to discourage illegal immigration. Because there are no internal border controls, nobody knows if you are traveling from country to country or living permanently in one country.

Iceland is already in Schengen. Your 3 months already count there.
