I'll admit that I only glanced at it, mostly section II, but it sure sounds like a bit more than just a treaty.

The US was supposed to be somewhat similar to how this sounds, with a small limited federal government (for the people, by the people), and the States would be reserved to have all the power not spelled out in the Constitution. Anyone living here knows that this is definitely NOT the case today (nor has it been for quite some time, maybe 100 years)

That comment is very ironic considering the reasons why they voted "no"...

And btw. I really must applaud the French for doing this:

Why did this have to happen while I'm in the US?

And thursday things will go from bad to worse, when the Dutch joins the fun.
