For one, the EU is not socialist, it's capitalist. So you think multinational banks directing policy is socialism? Give me a break. That must be why all the far left and socialist parties in Europe are typically euroskeptic, right? And two, the EU isn't even finished, here's a far better article on the subject:

It is socialist. How else can everyone retire at 50.

I suggest you read this http://www.amazon.com/EUSSR-European-Integration-World-wide-Comintern/dp/0954023110

and this http://www.lewrockwell.com/sanandaji/sanandaji13.html

and re read why Britain is bailing from my original source. You are clearly out of touch if you don't think a common currency is indeed a facet of socialism.

fantastic. but socialism does not apply here. systemic abuse by the financial sector does however apply very well.
