For the first time since 2007, more Europeans than not believe “my voice counts in the EU,” according to a survey of over 27,000 people across the Continent.
The good news for the Eurocrats and politicians preparing for next year’s election is that support for the EU is “the highest score ever measured since 1983” according to the survey report.
Better news for the EU is that 67 percent believe their country has benefited from EU membership, according to the survey, and 60 percent say being part of the bloc remains a good thing. (12 percent say it’s bad for their country.) In 2011, at the height of the EU’s financial and economic crises, just 47 percent said EU membership was a good thing.
Levels of support for the EU have gone up in 26 of the bloc’s 28 member countries‚ the exceptions being Germany and the United Kingdom which recorded 2 percent decreases in support (within the survey’s margin of error).

Fact of the matter is that if everyone works atleast decently well except for one participant, maybe the problem isn't the system itself but the single participant that failed

Euro economic zone means zero import taxes, you send the grapes you harvested in Spain to your distillery in France, bottle it in Italy and sell it in Belgium. EU has made economies incredibly interconnected and severing it would be unthinkable.

It is because Italy spent all their money on bunga bunga parties.
