[euro123]

Growth in bg before the eu and the years after the eu:

Before: 4.7%
After: 1.73%

The eu: 2.71 times worse for the country.

Almost the whole world took a dive during the financial crisis, and Europe collectively probably took the longest to recover (some haven't recovered at all). The same thing would happen if you didn't join the EU.

Then take this -5% out and you'd get worse result again + why didn't China or Australia took a dive? Only the ones stricly bound to American banks did.

If you visit cities like Sofia, Plovdiv, and Burgas it is clear that the EU has helped Bulgaria

^ Yeah it has made the locals more driven against the eu.

Well, at least we have a conspiracy theory. There's no point in creating a conspiracy that "Bulgaria doesn't exist", as it does not for most people. "Bulgaria what? That is a country?"

Bulgaria received a short stick of being included in EU. It was basically plundered from what I saw and "adjusted" the way it benefited the *EU,* not Bulgaria.
Overall there were two major scenarios of East European countries being included in EU; the first one - scenario of the V-4 - i.e. the Visegrad group
where these four were directly attached to German economy; and then there was the second scenario, prepared for Bulgaria and I believe Latvia and Lithuania.
So silly Ukrainians of the Western part are looking at Poland, thinking that they are going to get something similar, where Eastern Europeans looked at Bulgaria and said "no, thank you."

The bulgarian education system clearly failed to teach you how to understand economics.

Google "difference in differences", that's what you should be trying to do here. I already debunked you once, I am not going to do your work again.

Better way to interpret it: Finland does not need to exist, other countries (Bulgaria including), should.

^ "debunking me" me by just writing angry, pointless statements when I just show data that economic growth is slower after 2007.
