    Overall I think it’s a good idea. It does need much much work though but the general idea of a more united front. I don’t like borders or the ‘country’ defenition… Together we can accomplish much more I think!

    I think the Euro currency is a good thing, as a kid I didn’t get the ‘Gulden’ really it was not logical. This way it gets at least much easier when traveling just a few KM into another “country” aka a piece of land a little further away…

      The Euro disproportionally benefits already rich countries in the EU, while harming less well off countries like Greece, as they don’t have control over the value of their own currency.

        Being allowed to travel freely among the borders of Europe isn’t a big thing in my opinion, unless you have money and can travel for pleasure.

        Don’t you think that “freely” trading goods within the Schengen area might help the economy as well as consumers? The easier it is to ship stuff within the EU, the easier it is to buy and sell within it.
