    I’ve always thought the same thing and yet looking at the state of the big federations right now, Russia and the USA today, it is worth considering if deeper integration has its own potential pitfalls.

      Well, need to have good mechanisms to keep it democratic (where Russia and the US fall short). But yeah, not as easy as “just do it, lol” 😅

      Everything has benefits and drawbacks, question is if the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. I think it does personally, because a strong EU can stand up to the US and China.
