Once upon a time, the European Commission dreamt of making the European economy ‘smart’ – by investing in education, research and innovation -, more ‘sustainable’ – by moving Europe into a low-carbon economy – and ‘inclusive’ – by boosting job creation and reducing poverty. That was in the year 2010, it was the Commission’s 'Europe 2020 Strategy'. Then the carnage began. The same Commission that purred about smart inclusive sustainable growth helped impose heavy austerity on Europe and led the continent into a depression that now has lasted longer and has cut deeper than the Great Depression of the 1930s. |
