No it would be stupid to join the EU.. we have nothing to gain and everything to loose for a voting right of less then 1% in the EU. Over 60% of DK now want out of EU becoz it's done nothing but cost them and give them stupid laws they cannot refuse or they get miljons in fine's. We should not hand over our independence specialy not during a ruff period.

That is basically what I wanted to say. Too true. We would never be able to affect anything and we're not big enough for them to care enough about us to help us significantly.
