I was simply commenting on the lack of a popular vote to some entity that had direct control over regulatory issuance, monetary policy, and the like. To have these bodies setting this policy not directly answerable to popular vote I simply feel is a good way to have beauracracy out of touch with reality and doing as they feel. We have this bad enough here in the states, but at least we can elect a new governor to curtail state officials, and a new president can hopefully curtail Federal officials.</p><p><br /></p><p>Regulatory burden is the real job killer. Most do not realize how much expense and how big an impediment to business these regulators are. I am not talking about industry wishing to kill rivers and poison children, I am talking in some cities it takes 8 different applications and fees in order to even start a business.</p><p><br /></p><p>I was really commenting on European competitiveness Christian. I am afraid what will happen to the EU under the current structure. I simply do not see it as a good way to grow economically.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
