Why the European Union Must Be Abolished
by Fjordman

In October 2008, I published an essay entitled Ten Reasons to Get Rid of the European Union. The reasons I cited back then (and many more could be mentioned) were:


1.   The EU Promotes Crime and Instability

2.   The EU Weakens Europe's Cultural Defenses

3.   The EU Promotes a Bloated Bureaucracy

4.   Excessive Regulation and Centralization is bad for Freedom and for Prosperity

5.   The Lack of a Real Separation of Powers in the EU Invites Abuse of Power

6.   The Lack of Transparency Leaves the EU Vulnerable to Hostile Infiltration

7.   The EU Leads to Less Freedom of Speech

8.   The EU Fails to Consult its Citizens and Insults Them When Doing So

9.   The EU Undermines Political Legitimacy and Connections between Rulers and the Ruled

10.   The EU Spreads a Culture of Lies and Corruption
