It isn't a plot, it is a bureaucracy. And old and a scared one. I too went from pro-European to being mostly critical of it. That was years ago though. Some parts do good work, but these attempts are just overreaching. The EU is no federation and it shouldn't be one. It would be governed by people like this that have basically no accountability. You can argue that it is just the governments of member states, but that doesn't make it any better. The vast majority are not accountable to you in any case. Of course the EU has a democratic deficit. Although even wikipedia articles about that are already full of propaganda. Best solution to the current dilemma is to put up technical realities that make such attempts unfeasible.
