I'm baffled... would you also prefer if all US states would be their own independent countries without free trade and travel? Are there "Texit" or "Calexit" movements in the US? Would you see this as a good thing? Do you think the US would be remotely where they are if it would be 50 tiny countries bickering among each other instead of acting as one?

Actually you can:
"Citizens of the United States with a valid US passport can travel to 27 European member countries of the Schengen Area for a maximum of 90 days without having to apply for or obtain a Schengen visa for short-term tourism or a business trip."

...same for UK, except you can even stay for 6 months instead of 3.
