Is anyone else starting to question if the EU is really doing anything good? We never hear what good they do, all they do is sue the shit out of random major companies. Then again.. i'm no expert on the subject.
Bureaucratic, lumbering and ineffective as it may be, the EU at least tries to address the issue of large companies screwing society that is you and me and all our friends who don't happen to hold directorships in the corporate sector. If suing Microsoft, probing Nokia and bringing telecommunications companies to bear for their shameless greed (roaming charges? What, because Vodafone Ireland and Vodafone UK aren't the same company? Mobile phone charges are too low? I think not) brings the issues into the public consciousness, then that is a good thing.
