That DU'ers should not take pot shots like insinuating we have no legal system here in Holland.

Unless you are not one. Do I smell a freeper here?

The Amsterdam stock market was 400 years old last year and is world's oldest.

I don't want to toot the horn but I enjoy living here. I have lived in the US and Canada. I don't give a shit about becoming filthy rich, I make a good living for my family, live in a good house, the neighbourhood is fine... I pay pretty heavy taxes but the streetlights work, the garbage gets picked up, the kids go to school free, healthcare is affordable, if you lose you job, unemployment benefits are 80 percent of your salary until you get on your feet, if you don't have a job you still get US$1200 a month and a extra money for a summer holiday... Imagine that? Going to Spain in the summer is a right here.

And our unemployment rate is under four per cent.

Eat it.
