So you aspired to "sameness". I'm impressed.
I'd venture to bet the "rich" don't live in the Netherlands...they're smart enough to leave to a friendlier country.
You wouldn't rebut it anyway, Indy. Not your style. You would mock - to provide cover just in case anyone noticed that you had nothing positive to say.
I have read the Huffington Post occasionally but I have never come across the Daily Cos. Maybe YOU are its only reader!
Apologies for being a foreigner. I shall try to do better.
PS: On an international forum.....you are a foreigner too![/quote]
Now I do love it when there's an eloquent statement.
Now Fallingman...when's the last time you had anything positive to say about capitalism or Republicans?
Daily Cos...that's Dud's point of reference.

POOF:
Soup kitchens and bread lines seem out of place in this affluent country long known for its generous welfare system, administered until recently by generations of socialist-leaning governments.
But the growing dependency on private charity by thousands of people reflects how Holland — long admired for its fast-paced growth, high employment and prosperity — is increasingly falling on hard times.
After years of strong growth, the economy has ground to a near standstill and since April 2004, the number of people receiving free food packages at the Dutch Food Bank has jumped from 600 per week to nearly 5,000. Thousands more go without.
Most are unemployed, like De Vries. But many were declared physically unfit to work because of disabilities or earn minimum wages that run out before the end of the month.
The conservative government has been trying to bring under control vast costs for welfare, by limiting the number of recipients, and healthcare, expected to balloon in coming years due to aging population.
"It's a serious problem," said Henk Faling, acting head of the Food Bank. "A lot of people might not think so, but help is needed in the Netherlands. Poverty is just around the corner."
The most recent preliminary figures from the government's Bureau for Social and Cultural Planning indicate that at least 11% of the Dutch population, or between 700,000 and 800,000 households, lived in poverty in 2004, after the figure had declined steadily in the late 1990s to a low of 10.1% in 2000.
The poverty threshold in the Netherlands is annual income of less than $12,770 for a single adult, or $23,930 for a family with two children.
"I wouldn't call it alarming — we are about in the middle of the range when compared to the rest of the (European Union) — but things are headed in the wrong direction," said Cok Vrooman, a leading researcher on poverty at the Bureau, known by its Dutch acronym SCP.
