eu/acc: European Accelerationism
@levelsio We definitely need simpler regulations (e.g. for online transactions) and standardization across the EU: currently it is not a real union, it is a mess of complex regulations that change from country to country.
Practical example: I have a company based in Italy and when I need to send an invoice to a business located in another EU country, like Spain for example, the other business needs to provide a VAT number. The VAT number needs to be subscribed to VIES. Can you believe that we lost many restaurants for our website BuonMenu because they could not find a way to subscribe to VIES in Spain? That is crazy: all EU VAT numbers should be subscribed to VIES by default, when they are created, however there isn't any rule that impose that at the moment... causing many issues for cross-border transactions.
May be you should add some crypto/WEB3 initiatives in your doc. Just the idea. I love idea of e/acc too, but in my description I always write e/acc + crypto or e/acc + ₿
I really appreciate this idea. As an indie-hacker and serial entrepreneur (since 2017) I have launched many SaaS (https://collimarco.com) and I am always disappointed by the complexity of accounting / invoicing / micro payments / regulations in EU, compared to our US colleagues. This should be definitely improved if we want to be competitive. I have also proposed some standardization for invoicing to WICG in the past, but it's not easy to get the attention of EU institutions.

Great initiative, and I agree with almost all points!
I would change "Make English the primary language of the European Union" to secondary. I think each country still has a lot of people outside of our tech bubble who do not speak English. So I believe we need at least two languages in administration.
