EU countries should unite and form a single state

Shalom! Thanks for allowing to debate with you, first time I really seriously debated before, so good luck and let have a jolly good time! My argument is again the three points that my opponent said: 1. that EU countries would be willing to join in such a state 2. that EU countries would benefit from joining such a state 3. that this super-state would hold together in the short term and in the long term. Now since English is my second langauge, I will try and be as clear as possible. The EU is not really a 'state alliance' but simply an economic alliance between parties. Now, I understand the 'what if' here and so here we go. You said a pretty good argument about work, but here is the problem. Of course we know that Germany is known to be hard working people, but at the same time you said that Greece or Italy are 'more inclined to less work' the problem is with that statement as you don't know how the general population works. Greece don't work as much as Germany as because there is an economic crisis there. The Greece people most likely work hard, but that's like saying American are not healthy, because they have a higher standard of eating fatty food than France or something like that. You said that Germany has a strong economy, here is where you hit a roadblock. In 1991, Germany unified together, this is a great example of how even with a great economy like Germany faces a problem. West Germany is heavy industrilized. East Germany... not so good. So you have this huge rift in between the West and the East and even to this day, you can still see the problems that Germany is having. Germany is not an economic superpower house, sadly. The West side had more jobs than the East, this created a massive job loss in the East, because they had to adapt at the Western culture. Now you can my argument with that of a weaker economy country compare to that of a stronger one. The ONLY reason why most Western country are stronger in economy is because the Eastern ones.. had Communism, Poland is a great example: Large country, awesome people, good government, proud member of the EU.. but it has the Soviet in their lands. It was Communism that prevented them from 'booming' like the rest of the countries. Greece on the other hand didn't need that, their economic wasn't like that of the United States or Germany. Their economy was very common of the Greater Balkan (Bosnia, Croatia, Serbia, Hungary, Romania, etc) they was mostly rural with a rich cutural base. Now we go on about the central state argument, you're right about how a government gets it taxes from the people, but then you said that Germany will have to pay a high portion which is sadly: wrong. Perfect example of that of United States. Each states have their own taxes and such, but overall you all pretty much pay the same deal. In the EU cases, you wouldn't tax Germany 'more' than the other, or higher than the other. Taxes in a country or a single superstate means that every little heads in your country have the pay a tax fee. You make the argument that Germany will back out, I think not, because no government will suck money from one local area. Because you would know that the people will not like that and back out. So you need to exand your hand to ALL countries weak and stong. Now to the part you said that the larger countries will not join because they have to bail out the little ones.. hate to break it to you.. but they already did! Yes, I hate to say this, but they already did. They bailed out Greece, they're planning to bail out Ireland.. unless they already did.. I haven't been looking at th News to be honest. But even when they haven't formed this superstate, they done it already. Now here is where you hit a small little bump.. man I sound cocky don't I? The countries don't have to give themselves up as a whole. The same thing with.. Russia. Russia is not RUSSIA, it is a federal states like that of the United States. They have republics, states, etc. In side of Russia under one banner. The most prime example is: Chenchya, a former republic and now a republic under Russia rule. Now, that was fun to type out I have to admit.
