The EU was sold as a vehicle for common interest of smaller national states. It seems it is just a better vehicle to be targeted by lobbyists.

Constant surveillance ambitions, vast inefficient and unfair subsidies and the boon that is sold to the nasty peasants is that they don't have to show their passport when trying to go on holiday in another European country.

I think the dream of a common Europe or strong EU will be dead if nothing changes.
