Yeah, it’s a bloody nightmare over here…
Tell me one bad thing about living in the Netherlands?
Is it the perfect infrastructure that bothers you? High living standards? The ability to travel all over Europe whenever you please? The minimum of 4,5 weeks paid vacation a year? The 32, 36 and 40 hour work week?
Pray tell, what makes it such a hell, in your humble opinion?

It's been less than a week. You thought America was a hell just last week.
Trump's not even "in" yet, but you already think "prices and wages have taken off in the US"?
Just last week it was "hell on earth".
The date on the article was last April. Go ahead, thank Biden. The rest of us will be waiting. Oh, wait, no we won't.
The gaslighting has started, I see.

"When Elias Chedid moved to San Francisco, California, in 2017, he was quite happy to double his salary compared to what he was earning in France."
Let me see, who was president in 2017?
@Suzianne saidYep sue head over to your lgbtq websites and you can complain all day spewing the same doom and gloom hitter crap with them. They seem to be on a roll on the ones I looked at just like you.
By the time you heal from your TDS, the country will be a sh--hole. For real.
Too late then to be sorry, Kemosabe.

I eat roasted pheasants with truffles and a home made porcini reduction.
What do you eat in the US? A McDonalds cheese burger or something?

Age of consent is 17 there I’m sure the pervs in Amsterdam love that, they just bring in other people’s children to work there.
And the Netherlands isn't Amerika,

I didn't link the article. I did write this post but I was taking issue with him claiming "look how great it is here now" when this article was written in April of this year, when he was still talking about what hell the US was because of Biden.
Knowing him it was probably Breitbart or something.
