        @GreatDismal trumpism could happen here too. The far right is growing, lots of fear and distrust. Don't believe the hype

        As a liberal Dutchie, things don't feel as good as that sounds. Intolerance and the far right are growing quickly.

        True @BoingBoing & we should feel embarrassed at that obvious. :-) More, we cannot create a happy successful GOP society. Are we screwed?

        All well and good, but US was founded by people who didn't want to pay taxes. Plus finding a job in the Netherlands isn't easy.
