Tell me why then did the EEC, a trading bloc of nations, need to evolve into a political entity?

Also, given the evidence and history of how it has thus evolved from a free trade association over the past 40 odd years into a quasi - Federal State, why would you think that it would not evolve further? Why would it stop now?


Perfect example of "don't worry it will never happen" is outlined in the two articles below.

1. Where Euro-fanatic Nick Clegg taunts Farage over his claim that there will be an EU military force. Stating that it is "inconceivable"

2. Forward six months, and suddenly not only is it conceivable but has the backing of the two ring masters France and Germany.

other revealing snippets from that interview are the formation of a European Monetary Fund

Quote:
““I can envisage the possibility of a credit line with shorter maturities, for example five years. With this, we could assist countries which have run into trouble due to external circumstances. Of course, this would always be bound to conditions, would be limited in volume and with complete repayment,” said the German chancellor.

“A [European Monetary Fund] with such powers needs to be able to assess the economic situation in all member countries on its own competence. It should also evaluate the debt sustainability of the member countries and must be equipped with the right instruments to re-establish this, if needed,” she added.
for the above read "Greece". We'll keep you in our back pocket, and you will do as we say if want any cash.

another reveal was this too:

Quote:
Asked about her goals for the EU in the next five to ten years, Merkel said: “My goal is that the world knows: In foreign policy, Europe speaks with one voice.”
Make of that what you will.
