What is your oppinion about E.U.?

[Prinz Eugen]

My oppinion is that E.U. is not a real European Union byt a union based upon economic interests.It'n't based in the common heritage,culture we are share as Europeans and ofcourse E.U. don't help our racial preservation!
E.U open the gates to 3rd world immigrants and now open the gates widely to an non European nation,Turkey!
E.U didn't oppose to JSA when he bombed Serbia and ofcourse all Europeans are under political ,economic and militaryn control of America!

[Il Legionario]

The EU grew out of the ECSC (European Coal and Steel community) which was founded in 1951 by six members: Italy, France, West Germany, Netherlands and Belgium. Its only purpse was to pool the steel and coal resources ofthe member states, thus preventing another major European conflict. Therefore its main aim was and still is, commerce and suppression of nationalism.

The EU does not protect our European heritage in any way!

I had made a SelectSmart test to define this in general. I'm an EU-Skeptic.

[Il Legionario]

Good idea Ederico

[Il Legionario]

My result is EU-Skeptic as well

[Blood Axis]

I agree with Prinz Eugen.

The European Union should be based an the Racial, cultural and spiritual bonds of Europeans, not on economic terms.

The economic orientation of the EU, in fact, is often, if not always, directed against European preservation..

[Il Legionario]

Well said Blood Axis!

[Aeternitas]

EU-Skeptic / Anti-EU, just as I thought.

[Turbamulta]

EU-Skeptic / Anti-EU, obviously.

Economically the EU is interesting for compete with USA; the problem is when the economy is over all, then, happen things economically coherent like the adhesion of Turkey into an "European" Community, or build an European Super-State, in order to guarantee... the economy. Europe can't be built thinking only in the money, the capitalists will never understand this.

I only hope that my grandchildren will play on the ruins of the Strasbourg Parliament and will clean their ass with a note of 500€.

Negative- from a long-term perspective. EU is a heavy, disorganised, marcantile, bureaucraric frankenstein with vague goals and lack of spirit.

My opinion is that I want my sovereignty back. Down with that brothel for eurocrats. For National sovereignty and National pride!

That's quite right. They have nothing to offer but a disorganized merchantilism which does not ever serve the interests of its members.

And they are not even good at it. They are keeping the currency overvalued in such a way that they are badly damaging exports. I can hear the laughs from the nations of other parts of the world.

The Central Bank of each state member.

Before becoming a full member of the EU, Austria was a member of EFTA, the European Free Trade Area. I believe that there are still some countries under that treaty, like Norway and Switzerland. Something along those lines might be a prospect.

Agriculture is not a prospect inside or outside the EU if you are in Europe. One of the funny aspects of the EU is that they have been destroying Agriculture in Europe by unprotecting agricultural production within the borders of the union and lowering tariffs to products coming from non European countries like Morocco.

With their policies, in the future we will have to rely on food imports from outside Europe as Agriculture is a sector that is being abandoned due to a strong lack of protectionism by the EU.

[Menydh]

On second thoughts and to better answer your question, since the EU is destroying the Agricultural production of their member states and relying more and more on food exports from outside the union, for an European country outside the EU with some kind of EFTA-styled agreement/treaty which allows it to trade, becoming a major food producer along with other industrial sectors and better commercial international relations might be a good prospect.

That's something that should be studied and considered.

[marius]

As much as EU prevents the exacerbation of extremist tensions between the countries and lead to a real communication between them, it is ok.

Of course, there are other problems with EU, on which I do not agree such as some politcs, bureaucracy and so on.
