    I’m all for more cooperation in EU, but it’s also essential that we have our own governments taking care of local problems.

    Otherwise we will end up centralised, which means the thing that matter for 1 million people in a region won’t ever get looked at.

    I’m pro EU, but it’s not a solution for every single problem.

      Federations still have local governments tho, for example, Brazil, and the USA, both have states that are independent within the country itself

        You don’t have to look that far. Germany and Austria are both federations, Switzerland sort of is as well. Sure Austria is quite small and can hardly serve as a model for a federalized EU, Germany on the other hand isn’t small. It consists of 16 federal states, 3 of which are city states.
