Irish currency would help address economic woes

Where is our European Economic Community (of equal states) which we joined in 1973 by referendum?

We now have the European Commission, European Parliament, European Union with 27 states and the eurozone currency (under duress) with 17 states, and we are all equal — or are we?

Clarity should be brought to where we stand in all these institutions regardless of the vote and our decision on the Fiscal Stability Treaty.
