Majority of the Finns do not want Finland to join the European Community,
at least not as a full member. The resistance to joining has increased all
the time. The government, parliament and the president are totally ignorant
of the general opinion and with the strong support of the mass media they
express that "Finland is fully willing to join the European Community and
accept all possible oobligations that may be necessary for joining". 
We are also informed that we will _not_ have any kind of vote about whether
to join or not, the parliament and the government will make that decision
(big deal, since they - as is - represent political _parties_,
 not the people and for most part the political parties _do_ support
full membership - one exception is communists but for obvious reasons I am
not going to vote them).
The majority of the Finnish people are all the more strongly against full
membership, but still our decisionmakers neglect this fact and massmedia
continue their brainwashing program. Thus, Finland is can no longer be called
a "democracy".


These results are from the latest survey where people were asked whether they
wanted Finland to join the European Community or not. As the newspapers are
actively brainwashing Finns to say "yes", this result was a big disappointment
to the mass media and they hid it in a place where virtually nobody - they
wished - would notice it. (Sorry my poor translation)

QUESTION:					YES	NO	Not sure

"Should Finland go on with the application
 for the EC"		 			51%	31%	18%

"Do you think Finland should join even if
 the EC countries form a common military
 defence system"				38%	49%	13%

"Should Finland accept the decisions made
 in Maastrich if the EC have a common monetary
 unit and foreign politics"			28%	53%	19%


The ones who say "yes" just happen to be highly educated persons in high
positions. Ordinary people seem to be more strongly against, but there is
no way they can affect the final decision since "democratic" (or is it
"republic") Finland is not even going to have a vote. Sure, they could have
a revolution but most of the Finnish people are too obedient to do such a
thing! (Not to mention that it would not be legal either :)

Please, pass on the information of this article. You are not likely to get
anything like this from the Finnish News Agencies since they only give you
the "Yes we are gonna join" propaganda stuff.
