Advantages- avoids order effects, the aim of the experimental research is less likely to become obvious to the participant, in independent measures both conditions can be run simultaneously.
Disadvantages- non-equivalence of samples, you would need twice as many participants as you would for a repeated measures experiment and where there is too great a difference between the statistical variances of independent groups you may not be able to proceed with parametric tests.

I think there are some consequences (rather than disadvantages) of being a citizen of an EU member country. Lets say for example that a supra-national regulation framework (semi-governmental function) imposed by the EU on its members leads to situations where member states can feel their sovereignty encroached upon or compromised. Another consequence could be an inflow-outflow of EU citizens to and from areas of pre-existing economic opportunity. It is commonly accepted that too many participants in an economically robust area (European metropolitan areas) might lay the rural areas devoid of its workforce and cause a labor surplus/lowering of wages in urban aggregations. Thats two for you from several more. Thanks, AS
