Nope
the EU was created to make war between european nations not only unviable but unthinkable
the EU has succeeded in doing that so despite all its problems it should be protected
I'm from Ireland. EU membership definitely benefited us massively.
na
>no wars
>tax haven for all of Europe
>no benefit
Lol
The roadmap to rule of law and liberal democracy for countries applying for membership has been enormously significant.
Spain, Portugal, Greece, former dictatorships turned democracies.
Reunification of Germany, successful transfer to democracy of post Communist/Soviet states.
Huge achievement of European Integration.
Northern Ireland peace process too.
Plus a bunch of laws that protect individuals/businesses from getting screwed over by their own countries, and individuals from big corporations.
Can travel where I like, live where I like, work where I like, not have to bother changing currency. Pretty sweet.
We pay the most. Big corps might evade their taxes but your normal citizens wont.
One point m8, Portugal and Spain became democracies long before, they entered the Eu.
About the question of the OP, i think cooperation between europeans is always good,the problem was then,when the project became an universalist ideia, without protecting our nations.
Nope. It's a fucking disgrace that fucks us over by taking our fish and giving us fuck all in return.
>the EU was created to make war between european nations not only unviable but unthinkable
You could also say that about the 3rd Reich. Or giving in to ISIS. It's not very difficult to avoid going to war with yourself.

LOL, yes, that's why it's easier to live like a human being now than it was in the 70s. Oh wait, 2 people working cannot provide the same standard of living for a family as 1 could 40 years ago.
Also having to take in any amount of Kebbabic fucking morons just because the EU says so.
Oh well, I guess without the EU we'd be a bankrupt hellhole, just like everyone knows Iceland is. But I guess that's different, because Iceland has rich fishing waters... OH WAIT.
