ELON: EUROPE HAS WAY MORE BUREAUCRACY THAN THE U.S.
"You don't just have the provincial and national level, you also have the EU on top of that.
To be totally frank, EU headquarters in Brussels is essentially a cathedral to bureaucracy."

Apreciado Sr. Sánchez, estoy a su disposición cuando lo desee para hablar de los presos políticos en España - demócratas honorables-, de los exiliados por haber permitido votar a los ciudadanos y de la criminalización del derecho a la autodeterminación de los pueblos. Saludos. xitter.cf/sanchezcastejon/status…
El señor Torra no es ni más ni menos que el Le Pen de la política española. El @PSOE va a estar enfrente de sus postulados, defendiendo los derechos y libertades de todos los catalanes.
Amazing... xitter.cf/eu_commission/status/9…
It is time to decide what the European Union at 27 should be.
