If I have to continue the rhetoric of my original comment I would say I'm european.
I was born in Bulgaria, currently living in Berlin, doing IT.
I think the culture is indeed different between the member-states, but not so hard to overcome if you are acting together and vote.
- Pamar 10y agoI suppose someone remained in Bulgaria to tend the fields, repair the roads, work in the industries and so on. They of course have political opinions, watch TV and vote. But they - I suppose - lack the kind of experiences you had in Berlin. So you either take off their voting rights (UE Commission would not mind at all, I suppose) or you have to accept that USE is not gonna work.
- mamon 10y agoThat's the problem: people that would say "I'm European" are extremly hard to find, they are just insignificant minority. Most of us feel Polish, Italian, Greek, etc. as each of those nations has over 1000 of years of historical background, cultural differencies, not to mention different languages. And yet EU officials try to merge Europe in a single country. To be honest, I think that Europe (and, by extension, the whole world) will unite one day. With modern communications and transportation people from different countries have far more intense contact than ever before and that will inevitably lead to blending into single community. The problem is that this process must take some time, and by "some time" I mean "centuries", and EU officials try to speed it up to few decades.
