No, you're missing mine:
1. In no country in the world do the people vote on everything. In many countries, the head of government is not elected directly.
2. Direct democracy is rare and most democracies are representative.
3. The EU's institutions are thus not uniquely undemocratic - they all eventually derive their power from the people.
4. What you're accusing the EU of doing (i.e. bad legislation) is happening elsewhere too (e.g. in the UK).
5. That's because people actually want or are indifferent to such things.
