But we share in good and bad a common history. We don't have to abandon our nation states to have a political europe. We give away some of your prerogatives as nation states, but we gain more as a unit.
If the europe you want is only an economic zone then its already failed.
60 years wasted for nothing.

A United States of Europe?
No thanks.

A common military, but everyone retains their own language?!?
How does one go about doing that?

The strong states would eventualy be forced to financialy carry the weaklings.
Sorry. Not a socialism fan.

The EU needs to be disected, and any powers it has voided.
