I think it is. Or at the very least, the castration of them.
Now is it possible? No. Cos they mucked up the creation of the Euro project.
But they would like it.
And I am still undecided ffs!
I honestly don't think it is - indeed, the European Union isn't ideologically motivated - it's economically motivated.
What they want is an ever closer union that emphasises financial gain. They have no intent to have a superbloc, because it would make no sense - economically, it would be a disaster, as you'd have rebellions all over the place and chaos. Nobody would democratically vote for it from every member state, which is what it would theoretically take.
As you say, it's simply not possible, but not only that, I really don't think it's even desired. By anyone.
