Question

What are the advantages of belonging to the EU?

Answer 1

Heck when I went to Europe it was CHEAP to travel by train!

Think of the food... it is the best in the world.. The cheese, the wine, the chocolates, the grapes!

Multicultural diversity is fun too! You hop in a train and six hours later you're in a different world.

Your culture is older than the American culture, by thousands of years! We don't have anything like your old cities, cathedrals, art, music.. From Europe you hop out to Asia and Africa! I remember kids planning their school vacations in other countries because of the proximity!

You have a beautiful world out there

the advantage of European countries banding together and entering the EEC/EU is that as a whole body they are more powerful, can trade workers, do more to cover health insurance, and help each other out. in terms of products they keep money within these countries, don't have to farm out business to china or Taiwan to have things made, and can essentially leave America and her gross petty stupidity out in the cold and get on with creating prospering nations filled with happy healthy people...

Answer 7

Solar Power can be introduced through a referendum. The advantage to being in The Eu is that a law can be introduced to protect the right to Solar Power if citizens decide they want Solar Power in the Eu  all at once instead of  any hemming and hawing. The advantage  The Eu can be capable of stopping Global Warming all citizens have to do is decide if this is what they want. Do they want Solar Power.
