I realise that not everyone agrees with me, that it's not a black-and-white issue and that I'm completely exaggerating my actual reaction, but I think the EU is the best thing that's ever happened to Europe. Talk about how bad the Eurozone is in the crisis, but without it Greece and the Iberians would likely have collapsed anyway without any way of being bailed out by the significantly wealthier countries like Germany and France. It's basically a kind of international redistribution of wealth to ensure that the poorer members aren't completely wrecked without any support from the richest members. Also I think a lot of support for Euroscepticism comes from pig-headed patriotism and pure greed, two things that I despise.
