Powerful Poster

Via Matthew Yglesias, I discover Instapundit has found a "powerful poster" which compares the EU to Nazi Germany and the USSR.

This is pretty powerful, too.

More generally, I've never quite understood the conservative-liberatarian/libertarian-conservative objection to the existence of the E.U. I mean, one can find plenty of fault with it as an institution, but their objections seem to go deeper than that in ways I have never understood. They seem to object to the idea of it, and not simply the details. I do miss all the cheering when the Euro toppled from its initial high of about $1.17 to about $.83 which was proof of something (not sure what). What happened to that?
