In Sweden we voted NO to the EMU (Economic and Monetary Union) back in 2003. With 55.9% voting NO against 42.0% saying Yes. I'd say even back then it was a strong NO!
In Dec 2011 they did a poll and the result showed that 87,6 % did NOT want the Euro. Not a surprise since we know what trouble it has caused during the past few years!
However there are talks now that Sweden might enter this union through a back door! This makes me crazy! I mean it's like saying who wants to throw themselves into a fire? or a sinking ship!
It's one thing to lend the countries in the EMU money, but a total other one to get the EURO!
We do not want it! We can clearly see that the citizens of Sweden do NOT wish to enter this union!
I think we should help out, lend money but with some kind of security and also get lots to say about it. We should not just lend it out like it's a few pennies, We should state our mind and conditions for agreeing!
At the end of the day, we are a member of the EU, we are a European country and if... we one day would find us to be in a difficult situation, we want aid and support as well from our fellow European friends. That's one of many reasons we should help out! Also remember that Sweden is a small country and other big European countries can easily step on us, that's why it's important to sign a contract making us have power!!
DO not try to fool me!! We live in a democratic country and we have voted!
As parliament you cannot push something like this through without our votes!!
