Dutch people where asked to give their opinion about Dutch society and rank it with a number between 0 and 100. It turns out that a lot of people are much more negative about it than I am, on average only 36 points :) Yesterday's emigration numbers make sense. People want to get out of here.
DutchReport has the full translated results here.
are you back in the NL? What happened with your gig in the US?
But why go to the US of all places?!? I'm American, and I am so thankful I don't have to live there, esp in the current political climate. I'm not happy with the NL either, but the US is a definite step down. Are you prepared to have no job security? To have only a couple of weeks holiday (and be so much further away from any other countries to visit)? To deal with things being so censored to PROTECT THE CHILDREN, but still allowing tons of violence to be shown? To have such strong homophobic measures in the govt? To have to drive a car (unless you are lucky enough to live somewhere where you can bike to work, but it may be very dangerous)? I know the NL aren't the answer, but you're European, you can go anywhere within Europe, and you'd rather go to the US? I don't get it...
