In praise of ordinary Czechs

The wise men, the intellectuals, those who serve power, are appearing on Czech TV analyzing the election results.  I did not throw up, and that's an accomplishment.

Most Czechs, it seems, do not believe they are equal to other countries in the EU.
Hmmm, how odd.  Germans and Italians own their banks.  Skoda belongs to Volkswagen.
The grocery stores are German or Austrian.  So, all those profits leave the country....

Then again, the EU itself is not democratic---by design.  But, then there's the fact that the democratically elected leaders in Greece and Italy were removed by Brussels and the Banksters.

Errr, then there a few referendums where the misguided people voted incorrectly, and like
bad students who flunked the exam, Brussels made them do it all over again.

In general, it seems to me that the average Czech is more in touch with reality than they wise men of Czech TV.
