One man - one vote where Angela Merkel was the one man casting the one vote would at least be more efficient than having a Parliament, commission and courts wandering about the place overruling each other.
The countries that make up the EU are not equal. They can (as one example) either chose to make the German finance ministry responsible for sorting the Greek economy (as they did the East German one) with all the pain that would involve, or they can let them go to the wall under their own free will and let things sort themselves out later. Constantly telling lies and papering over the cracks is not going to end well though, it only builds up pressure that will make the resulting explosion worse.
