i'm definately for a united europe. i don't like national pride and such stuff. you can't be proud on something you haven't helped doing imo.
do you think the euro will be the strongest currency in the future? or still the dollar?
At the moment the euro seems to be stronger already, the dollar is comming back a little, but it could go bothways really..
I'm not nationalistic, infact quite the opposite. However, just like Damocles said, I don't think a united europe would really work. Too much problems with such a 'democracy'.
Lol, if someday we can't do nothing but accept a United Europe, I do hope Holland get's a big influence vote-wise, because we still pay the most by far, of all EU countries...
I know, I know, can't exactly call this a democratic and social argument, but what if other large countries join the EU who do not pay anything (or just a tiny little bit) but still have a vote? That would be unfair in my humble opinion.
It's something tricky though, because I really have no problem sharing wealth with other nations, so on the other hand I'd be glad to help out.

woops... is it countrie's or country's? country's, right? well then...
No, the plural of country is countries. In English plurals get a 's' behind the singular. In normal cases that would be countrys, however this is a somewhat special case. Just like baby -> babies , country -> countries get -es behind the singular. Not trying to be a teacher, but thought you might wanted to know. Damn, I feel like a wisecrack now. 
Cheers
