Ther Euro was a good idea. But like most good ideas it needs good intelligent people to run it. They put political imbeciles in charge of it.

It had to have One Chancellor/Exchequer which controlled borrowing and spending of all the Governments. Allotting a small part of taxation to local control. Like it's done in the US, but better. So countries like Greece to Eire couldn't borrow against the Economic Strength of Germany.

Will EU destroy country's governments and sovereignty? If this will mean also end of abusive laws and corruption, please bring it on!
The EU aids corruption.

As a joke around, if country borders will return in Eurozone and Euro as currency will go, I will probable ask for political asylum in USA
There's no problem with freedom of movement within the EU. The problem is the EU's borders are crap and not policed properly.

Secondly, Freedom of Movement is fine. Just not freedom to move to another country and live off the country's citizens. And no automatic right to benefits of any kind or to a job. Benefits should come from the Native's country or be at the same rate as they would at home. It would curb the economic EU migrants and not affect those who bring skills and wealth.

Europeans are 100s of years away from wanting to be United like the States. The EU is before it's time and that will destroy it.
