okay, i'll speak my mind.
I'm divided.
On one hand i know that i'm an european that doesn't need a structure above me telling me I am so. We have always been here you know?... 850 years unconquered ;) fighting and loving the spanish like a family. Which we really are.
On the other hand I know that Europe stands for a certain lifestyle and cultural reference that should not be squattered by convinience but reinforced against all this grab-what-you-can economy of which we ourselves are not innocent.
But we have a strong critical creative mass and that is what i'm afraid to lose if Europe has a plan fails. We lose a lot of ethical entrepreneurship that boomed in these years and I'm afraid that that can be put away if we fail. Brilliant minds from all over are gathering around EU environmental projects and I don't want to put that away.
Right now, in Oporto (north of Portugal) the bus fleet is having a major change from diesel engines to hydrogen vehicles and that is only possible with the knowledge of many EU countries, our and others... And i think that is the way for us all.
Think as one for the benefit of all. I don't think there's any federation around with that sort of plan.
So i really hope that the EU can stand in spite of the french "no", which I respect anyway.
