    Oh, the problem then is the privatization of the Post Office. I'm sorry if I pry into your countries politics but I lived in England for a period of time while going to school there. This was in 2002 during the time of 9/11 and I returned back in around 2005 for a short holiday to visit friends. From what I remember the UK was not part of the EU. But it seems along with the EU came things like Privatization of Historically public institutions. Before Brexit occurred, I even heard of talk of privatization of the NHS. As an American observer I support Brexit. The Americans I'm among feel the same way and I have to believe there are many of us who feel the same way here.

    I never quite understood the controversy over Brexit. The UK like other countries including Scandinavia (never been there, never want to go there) kept their currency and financial institutions. To me, Brexit is just a border and immigration dispute in the sense, the UK wants the right to control it's own Passports. But with Theresa May (who I do not believe was ever voted into office after Cameron stepped down) it seems to take on some odd dimensions. By the way I'm surprised an English woman is named May and Theresa in England, it doesn't seem very Anglican to me. It almost seems like someone calling someone Adolf in Germany especially for an Anglican country. It seems in some way in the last two years our countries conservatives have migrated towards your country.

    Sad day for us Americans where there is nothing we can do about or government or the bad economy. Most of us play FF14 because we were professionals who cannot find jobs. The only problem, the unemployment survey does not call our houses. These things are not random. I assume our real unemployment here is about twenty percent with the employment survey only contacting certain people and not others.

    This is the kind of talk we have on FF14 online all the time which makes this game revolutionary.

    You're having this kind of conversation via FFXIV but that doesn't mean the game itself is remarkable for letting you do that. You could be having the same conversation anywhere you can talk with other people, online or not.

    It's a good game, but you don't need to overhype it by attributing things to it that don't really have much to do with the game itself.
