I think it goes like that: -US government is a capitalist one semi-controlled by corporations (corporations control the funds, but the public is the one to vote - thanks to a duopoly, the latter have limited options and the former decides which one to support). -EU "government" is a social one semi-controlled by social organizations (basically a lobbying body, mostly socialist that can create a short-term momentum to push their agendas. The main power that matter is Germany, but there is a possibility for a coalition of a mixed majority of other top 6 countries to outweigh their decisions both vote-wise and politically).
