Arguments against the EU

Text from Regula Heinzelmann

February 8, 2025

The EU has been delaying bankruptcy for at least 10 years!

According to Statista, the EU has a total of 14.3 trillion euros in absolute national debt. For more than 10 years, the non-bailout clause in Article 125, paragraph 1 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union has been systematically violated: the Union is not liable for the debts of central governments, etc. This policy was led by Germany, or rather by Mrs Merkel's government.

The euro was unrealistic from the start. The convergence criteria were set arbitrarily. As early as May 1996, the European Commission stated in an economic forecast that, with the exception of Luxembourg, Denmark and Ireland, all countries did not meet the convergence criteria.

Migration problems

The Schengen-Dublin agreements are being violated in the EU, led by Germany, where the Merkel government has illegally opened the borders since 2015. Admittedly: The governments that have not defended themselves against the violations of the law are also partly responsible for the migration debacle, unfortunately including my home country Switzerland.

Bureaucratic directives

The new EU Directive on corporate sustainability due diligence and amending Directive (EU) 2019/1937 and Regulation (EU) 2023/2859 is a bureaucratic monster. It stipulates due diligence obligations that must be integrated into the company's corporate strategy and risk management systems (Article 7). A long-term strategy must be developed and a code of conduct drawn up. This is best done by management.

To determine the appropriate measures referred to in the first subparagraph, due account shall be taken of (Article 10):

• whether the potential adverse impact may be caused only by the company; whether it may be caused jointly by th company and a subsidiary or business partner, through acts or omissions; or whether it may be caused only by a company’s business partner in the chain of activities;
• whether the potential adverse impact may occur in the operations of a subsidiary, direct business partner or indirect business partner and the ability of the company to influence the business partner that may cause or jointly cause the potential adverse impact.

Companies must develop and implement a plan to mitigate the effects of climate change (Article 22). Contractual assurances must be obtained from direct and indirect business partners in order to ensure compliance with the company's code of conduct or a prevention action plan (Article 10).

According to Article 37, this directive 2029 regards all companies.

Freedom of expression: Restriction

The Digital Service Act endangers freedom of expression and information in the EU. According to Article 2(h), all information that, as such or through its reference to an activity, is not in accordance with Union law or the law of a Member State is considered illegal content. This means that it will be difficult to criticize abusive Union law. The EU's explanation of this is Orwellian: "Creating a safer digital space in which the fundamental rights of all users of digital services are protected."

Europe must be free from the EU

The EU must be dissolved in an orderly manner. Reforms only waste time and money in such a complex and corrupt system. Time to establish a new organisation for #Europe, that guarantees people's rights and a reasonable immigration and economic policy. Then we can compete with the major powers like China, Russia and the USA.

My proposal for a new state convention:
