Former Soviet Dissident Warns For EU Dictatorship | The Brussels Journal

"No, they did not. Look at Denmark which voted against the Maastricht treaty twice. Look at Ireland [which voted against the Nice treaty]. Look at many other countries, they are under enormous pressure. It is almost blackmail. Switzerland was forced to vote five times in a referendum. All five times they have rejected it, but who knows what will happen the sixth time, the seventh time. It is always the same thing. It is a trick for idiots. The people have to vote in referendums until the people vote the way that is wanted. Then they have to stop voting. Why stop? Let us continue voting. The European Union is what Americans would call a shotgun marriage."

Funny. Tax referendums work that way too don't they? Congress votes over and over for new spending programs until they pass. then we spend the next 50 years debating how to pay for it.

At what point to ordinary citizens say "ENOUGH!"

We have to look to the former Soviet Union for examples. We're not quite there yet.
