Yes I support it, do I think there's element which is wrong and/or problematic about it; sure. But I will to any day defend EU improving the wealth of the average European. Some of you will likely bring up the last few years of economic crisis, but that was a crisis after 15 years of growth. We will likely see similar crisises in the future, but we can also see the much higher growth of the East European countries which entered EU than the ones which stayed outside.

I'm personal of the opinion that what EU delivers which matters most are not the free trade zone, the free movement or general cooperation, all those things are nice. But what I think have matter the most, are that EU have pushed good governance and anti-corruption (even if some members still suffer from it). When I was child, corruption even in western Europe was common at example custom checks, it was common that you need to give a little cash to get through, police extortion of tourist was common. Today these things rarely happen in most EU countries (again there's exceptions).
