All countrys or regions have power with corporations, the Money that a corporation give to is employers or sharehoders create the richness of a region or a country. But companys need protection from the country and the political power need the corporation power to give a growth on the economy and both survive. The voice of the corporation power in the political house is make by politicians that are linked to the corporation.
The European Union has a parlement that the corporation power of all countrys don´t have the same power to have a voice to the problems of the corporation, the problems of a company in Spain or Portugal don´t have the same political voice in the european parlement that a german company had.
What i say that a sucess of european region is linked to the voice that a company had in the political house, the big problem of europe is that the the voice that represent german corporation in the parlement are a sucess and the voice that represent the south countrys of europe are corruptive.
With this system in europe corporation europe is not working because the voice of a corporation of a region don´t have the same political power, i believe that more countrys entering in the european union make more distortion to a change in the political system in europe.
The European Union was a region of sucess when all coutrys sign treaty´s and all have a voice to participate in the construction of the political european house, its only with treatys that corporation europe can have sucess. With the actual system that not all corporation´s have the same voice in the parlement and a comission that legislate in favor of that ones that have a political voice in the parlement, corporation europe will have a big roud to satisfy all regions of europe.
