Very good points, ones which outsiders, many of whom have a kneejerk reaction against the Euro and the EU, might miss.
I wish the EU could succeed in fostering trade and closer political ties -- with a strong, stable currency. What I don't like are the diktats coming out of Belgium on all sorts of stupid shit like shutting down the world's most efficient farms. The EU is not a bad idea, but the execution has been poor. The idea of trying to create some overarching political structure that precludes another World War is noble, but the devil is in the details, and there are a lot of problems with the way the EU has been run.
