> Who do you think makes these rules and laws in the EU? Belgians? Reptilians?
Germany and France, mostly.
> European countries and any country can veto. That's actually why EU is considered slow and inefficient in some areas.
First of all, this is not true. There’s no single party veto on legislation. Secondly, the US states have an even more effective veto, which is just ignoring federal law, because nobody can force them to enforce it.
And having no single-party veto on legislation means that if you’re from a smaller EU country, you’ll never EVER have any meaningful impact on _anything_.
> If EU says no more cash payments over 10K EUR, that means all the member countries agree that no more cash payments over 10K EUR.
As explained before, nope. It’s true that there is single-party veto on certain things (admissions to the Union itself, the eurozone, or schengen, but not for legislation)
And how is that EU’s fault and what makes you think that your politicians were loving the large cash payments but Germany and France made them ban >10K EUR payments?
So you think that Latvia, which has 8K EUR cash limit, is forced by be Germany and France to not allow cash payments over 10K EUR and you are dreaming of the destruction of EU so you can do above 10K EUR cash transactions? Are you counting on Latvia not enforcing its own laws for that? What’s your reasoning here?
Sure but how exactly Germany and France are making Latvia impose 10K limit when Latvia already has 8K limit and what makes you think that abolishment of EU would make Latvia allow over 10K?
Germany and France, mostly.
