The funny thing about the EU is that while they do all this theatre of parliamentary elections, the bulk of such decisions are always taken by an unelected organ, the EU commission. It is not that I think they have mischievous intentions, on the contrary, but any unchecked managerial bureaucracy always go to the path of endless regulation and control.

The EU commission is not unchecked. Unelected governments (and instead appointed by the parlament) are the norm in most European states. Why on HN people feel entitled to make such comments? Is it a Krueger effect on politics?

Notice how you failed to disprove the comment you replied to, but are complaining about entitlement.

Look in the mirror, see the problem.

Could you tell how the EC is unchecked? Can they create enforce which I have to follow without judges, the European Parlament and the European Council?
