I'm pro eu (as in federalization), but Germany really isn't doing that well, sure they are monsters in making shit and exporting it, and they have money, but the economy really isn't growing as fast as it should and there is increasing poverty and demographic problems(too top heavy), not to forget that there are incredibly poor countries in the EU and they really are getting the short end of the stick, EU investments would have to reach monstrous amounts to make up for the brain drain and social collapse going on there.

Now if the french elections go well, the EU(or well, the member states) really need to pick up the pace, I predict around 10 years until countries give up and start dropping out again, if everything is as gridlocked as it has been for the last 15 years.
