The main problem of the commission is IMO that they aren't directly voted for and, well, not sure if I should call it corruption, but it does seem like the Commission is too monied-interests-friendly.
Their "friends" are mostly European, so they sometimes do something for EU citizens against the interests of foreign industries.
- vr46 3y agoI'm less sure that voting for them would make any difference, given the way elected politicians behave, but the levels of corruption seem to belie the bureaucracy, designed to prevent corruption. I feel that they're too keen on using Europe as some kind of club that encourages countries to soften in order to join - which I like - and less keen on fighting for the citizens, although this might be down to a disconnect and associated cluelessness about how things work. This whole anti-encryption crusade has a Mr Bean-like naive bumbling line of attack, unlike the parallel UK approach which is decidedly supervillain-like.
