I give it about 10 years before the EU is invaded by the US after corporate lobbying

Or a couple of months if the EPP win the next EU elections.

I need context

Europeans People Party, large political party within the EU which is largely full of conservative right-wing folks with the german Ursula Gertrud von der Leyen at it's top. She is also currently president of the European Commission and has been known to be involved in corruption and to favour company interests, as well as the rest of the fuckers in the EPP.

So I guess the context is: If EPP stays in power, that's good for top-business-people, but bad for everyone else. Thereby detrimental for such competitive-practise-laws.

Thanks. It seems EU needs Navalny too. Fucking Putin.
