Dutch Shrugged?
They want to get away from socialism and EU oppression.
Holland was a nice little country: beautiful flowers and OK cheese. Too bad it is vanishing. The miracle of socialism once again works its guaranteed magic.
The story does not say where they are all going? Would it be the US maybe?
Into the clutches of the evil George Bush and his war machine?
They are leaving before the windmills are replaced with minarets.........
This is much like those Massachusetts residents who, having ruined their own state, are moving to New Hampshire to ruin that state. I think secular fundamentalists should be forced to live in the social and moral dump they've created.
Hey! I moved to Georgia to ruin it!!
"The story does not say where they are all going? Would it be the US maybe?"
Based on my experience, I welcome the Dutch as neighbors, should they come here.
Nicest people in Europe.
Actually, when I was growing up my family were NH-weekender Massholes, but we were Republican NH-weekender Massholes, by God! Some of us deserve a little asylum, don't we? ; )
I actually made the short list for a high paying finance job in Rotterdam without any of the necessary language skills. This was before the Van Gogh murder. Sometimes when you lose, you really win.
It does seem like a large hole in the story, don't you think?
I know a couple people that were from our office in Amsterdam. Very nice and very friendly.
Last year, I was travelling to Kuwait with some coworkers, and we had a stop in Amsterdam. One of my co-workers and I decided that we'd take a trip into the city for a few hours until our flight left. So we got some Euros, boarded a train from the airport to the city.
We had walked only a few blocks from the train station, when we were accosted by an aggressive Arab-looking panhandler, who demanded money in broken English.
I told him, "Hey bud, we're from Jersey. We've been panhandled by experts, and your not gettin $#!.".
He seemed to understand that we weren't going to be co-operative, because he next put his hand inside his jacket with one hand, and then pointed to my friend and said, "I shoot you - bang - I shoot you". My coworker, who is a relatively good sized Italian guy, stopped dead in his tracks.
I put my hand on my friend's shoulder, and said to the panhandler, "Oh yeah ? You're going to shoot us ? Really ? Don't you know who this is ? This is Tony Soprano. You know Tony Soprano ?".
At this, the panhandler turned and fled.
Hurray for americanization.

We should be letting in these educated English speakers. Not the illiterates of the 3rd world. Immigration should be a tool of US policy to benefit the United States. Not a land of convenience to benefit various 3rd worlders, letting them jam and cram their way in here.
God bless America's Tony Soprano's.
Whistling past the graveyard.

LOL....Good luck in your endeavors.
OK, so move to Atlanta and you'll solve that problem.
