It's all very courageous until you try to get projects done.

The EU reminds me of how the UN unravelled into irrelevance back in the 70s-80s. Lots of good intentions, cash flowed, all kinds of progressive projects were seeded but then what happened?

Difference is, the member-states actually have given the EU some power in its area of competence, while the UN is just a club to keep in touch with each other (which is also very important).

Strange, it seems we get plenty of projects done. Everyone on the client side is happy; Everyone on the team gets paid.

Doesn't sound too bad to me.
