  • Migrants don’t vote, so they’re always the easy target.

    They also don’t know the market, so again, they’ll take what they are offered.

    Rent control will help, but many migrants are pushed out of that system as they do not know the local ways (which are typically explained in Dutch).

    And yes, whilst full time is generally considered 36 or 40 hours (depends on type of job and collective agreements), many people don’t work that many hours, as it is not worthwhile being taxed on the full time hours.

    Unfortunately the election debate has become too fragmented on housing to even get a coherent argument through, which makes finding a solution even harder.


  • You need boots on the ground if you want a change in regime.

    They’ll otherwise just move underground like Iran did, and keep hold of power through gangs (which they already control).

    I’m sure the opposition won’t live long in the country if the US attacked, so as to make sure no one’s able to lead a revolution.














  • Before Rome, there was Greece, and prior to that the Persians. They all had their empires and did what they did.

    Humans are greedy by instinct, and we just organise the religion to suit their needs.

    The Ottomans also did their fair share in the Middle Ages.

    Just look at how Christianity is twisted in the US for multiple popes having to condemn their actions.
