I don't disagree. But the lack of accountability is perhaps not due to democratic laws being insufficient, but due to people/the media just not caring enough about what happens at the EU institutions. In the Netherlands, for instance, the most powerful positions are also not directly elected (the ministers including the prime minister, majors, the senate) but their work is most definitely scrutinized and fuckups can have consequences.
