The Netherlands have decided to stop squatting. Yesterday the anti squatting bill was passed and around the country demonstrations erupted. Nijmegen being a politically very left city has Kronenburgerpark. Just now Kronerburgerpark was a scene of chaos as the police tried to persuade squatters to leave the park in one peace. By the looks of it they were not succeeding.
I usually refrain from political stuff on my blog. But the Dutch have brought it upon themselves. Do the the PVV voters have any idea what it going on? Miko has made a point…(in Dutch)

Papua New Guinea always had a lot of people coming over trying to exploit its natural riches. You name it and PNG’s got it. Unfortunately like history has seen so often people just take what they want and don’t mind the locals. In fact they are seen as nuisances. This article is from a Dutch newspaper.
The article does not mention that papua-new-guinean politicians made this happen by inviting them in. A certain amount of money and privileges in the right pockets even exclude these foreign companies from paying taxes. Guess which country benefits from the profits? Guess where the money goes these chinese workmen earn? Guess how much pollution is exuded from a nickel mine? Etc, etc, etc…
Seeing a documentary like zeitgeist makes you wonder…about every aspect of our life.
It is important to be yourself I guess, love humanity and hope that a lot of people do the same.
