Socialism and the EU

A very perceptive couple of quotations and a comment from demon at http://biasedbbc.org/blog/2016/03/22/poor-but-happy/ articulates something I've said before on here:

'Churchill:  The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries.

I also found this on a website... Bukovsky:   Socialism is the gradual and less violent form of communism, and socialism is the project of the European Union, which was born in Maastricht in 1992. The intent was to save socialism in Europe after the fall of the Berlin Wall and the predictable bankruptcy of the welfare state in the West as well.

I had never previously considered that the creation of the EU was specifically to replace the USSR (despite its similarity). But it makes perfect sense.'

The EU's future seems to be that of a bastardised marriage of socialism and Islam, are you happy? Will your children and grandchildren be?
