The outward trappings are slightly different but the actual economic freedom of a citizen in either system is the same. They own nothing, except the few household items granted to them by the state, and anything they do own is subject to confiscation at any time. I'm surprised you don't see the smilarities and I'm also surprised that you seem to think I made this equation up.
The EU is run by a new aristocracy --- the socialist bureaucrats --- who have every bit as much power over the economic freedom of the continent as the old manor lords used to exercise. You cannot make an economic decision of any kind in the EU without first waiting in line to get the blessing of some imbecile with the absolute power to say no.
