EU – Soviet Union comparison
* both have centralized authority
* EU-commission corresponds to a politbureau
* “Trotsky type” international socialism, broken borders
* supranational control
* based on making a revolution similar to the green transition (and neither communism nor green economy were realized)
* after a period of left politics advancement in Europe during late 19:th century, came WW1 and the Russian revolution. In Europe we have had green transition and now Ukraine war that has enhanced eurocentrism.
* Soviet used 5-year- and 10-year-plans. EU uses 7 year plans.
* common currency
* cold war: Soviet v US, EU v Russia
* proxy war: Soviet: Vietnam, EU: Ukraine
* no transparecy in administration
* sham elections. EU president appointed in a closed meeting. When Swede Bah Kuhnke was candidate for parliament president she could not win since the “election” result was decided beforehand. A Briton had earlier tried to have election campaign, but he decided not to continue it. When Magdalena Andersson was “elected” Socialist party leader and thereby PM, she received 350 of 350 delegate votes.
* chasm between people and politicians
* society divided into classes where those in power receive benefits for making society dysfunction, like how bureaucrats decide against developing energy production
* bureaucrasy, dysfunction to kill local initiative
* mass surveillance (Snowden, Kamphuis)
* isolation, like CO2 trade barriers (CBAM) which will protect the local industries and raise prices within the area
* difficulties traveling abroad, like during Covid, airport problems, POOT requirements, passport delays, 183 day rule for settleing outside EU.
* broken borders mean that large corporations can enter, kill local competition and transfer assets to central units.
* large chains without competition will give price hikes (“inflation”) and poor quality merchandise
* when “vaporware” like Northvolt receives > sek 6bn to build battery factory no local factories can compete. No normal bank (not like EIB) would lend to that, also without security.
* no competition, local production and enterprise will struggle when the politburo starts large projects using large sums of money they took from the people
* (contra-)”revolutionary” was used to oppress dissidents in the same way as “green” is used today. Green transition = communist revolution

I en planekonomi av sovjetisk typ (=EU inkl Norge) så växer inte företag fram organiskt beroende på marknadens förutsättningar utan plötsligt informeras bara folket om vad som skett.

EU och Sverige är med full fart på väg in i den gröna planekonomin. Sovjetisk planekonomi ledde till att Sovjet förlorade kalla kriget. Kinesisk planekonomi ledde till minst 40 miljoner döda i svält. I båda fallen var drivkraften goda föresatser och idén att byråkratisk centralstyrning är bättre än marknadsmekanismer. Samma drivkrafter ligger bakom dagens enorma satsningar på “grön omställning”.
* the people’s assets are transferred to the state or in the case of EU, large enterprise
* news media completely one-sided. Not one positive article on Brexit. Not one seriously critical article on EU.
