Mis-selling Europe

Article Abstract:

Europe was facing problems of unemployment, its economies being hyper-competitive along with competition issues and all enlargements of including Balkan states were difficult and most were expensive for which the European Constitutional Treaty was proposed, but people rejected the same for different reasons. Voters are dissatisfied that Europe has not taken any measures to solve these problems, but they do not understand that it is hard to identify any continental democracy that feels very close to the people, particularly when the people are culturally diverse and locally well organized.
