maar als je eerlijk bent, wil je graag one of our one zijn? je bent toch ook chinees? wees er trots op, je ziet er toch anders uit,,? waarom een probleem maken als het iets is wat je niet kan veranderen, iedereen heeft zo zijn problemen zo is het leven nou eenmaal.

Is this saying there is no unemployment benefit in the USA. Then he likes information there is unemployment benefits here. People with platforms should really study well before they give information out.

I live in Rotterdam, earn around 6.5k net (with 30% ruling ), and wife around 1k with part time job, we have 2 kids, house rent is 2k, facilities around 500k, kids goes to the local international school, no car, no luxury lifestyle, not much travels, we just save 500 eur per month and that's all. I don't know how people do live in NL with much less income, I guess they now tricks on housing and taxes :D

You find amsterdam friendlier cause you are from there… as a foreigner in amsterdam I find much more friendlier the USA and not amsterdam. And btw I also speak about not work related things when I go back to my old friends in my country, if I speak to my friends in amsterdam we speak about work and politics… so it’s reverse for you cause you are Dutch….

Everything in the Netherlands is regulated, including prices, it is a distribution system that is based on the monthly disposable income, the government determines who gets what part of your salary and often you are at the bottom of the list. You earn money, but you are not in charge of it. That's how the economy works in the Netherlands, it's hard to swallow. The Netherlands is known for its highly technical agricultural sector, did you know that the population is also one big human farm? Taxes for the government and guaranteed profits for big business. Welcome to the Netherlands.

Hey each person is different with different motivations. She works for one of the top consultancy firms, so yeah...it's a lot of work. But it's fantastic training for someone new to the workforce (I used to work in consulting myself)...and you can learn A LOT. There's also a lot of room to grow or you go to a company and work way less hours after you get some experience. I wouldn't do that myself right now but hey when I was 22-23...I would have

For anyone living in the US, feel stuck but would like more of the security found in places like Europe, I'd recommend working in the public sector. While you don't make as much as you could privately, you have incredible health care (by US standards, still not as good as Europe), the pace is much slower, you receive a pension, and you most likely belong to a union.

Last December was the worst I can remember. We had a record of 13 days of grey and rainy weather without any ray of sunshine or blue skies. Even I was now complaining why the sun was on holiday somewhere else and why the skies had to be more than 50 shades of grey. Today was a cold and sunny day, so so nice.

Italy and also a lot of other countries in Europe have an increasing problem with Muslim immigrants, they are coming here imposing their own customs and cultures over the western culture. Politicians from the left benefit from that and even are cases of corrupted politicians receiving money from the Qatar (Qatar-gate). That’s why in many countries in the EU the right wing parties are on the rise. Stay safe, stay away from Islam ! Stay safe, stay away from communisme!

The other day my mom said there was a shooting in the mall in her suburb..she lives in the US. Also my family from Germany moved to the US for two years just to be traumatized by shootings! The US is so dangerous! They didn’t even live in a bad area, they lived in a wealthy area. Their friends entire family was killed by a crazy man who had a gun. Of course they went back to Germany after that. They said the US was crazy. I also heard someone say online who is in the US “oh there was a shooting nearby but I feel safe overall “. How is that normal in the same sentence??? I think this was in Texas. Then you also have gangs in the US and cartels too, and the mentally unstable people that will harm you for no reason. And the people who will yell and scream and harass people for no reason. I have witnessed it in the US. You don’t even have to be in a bad area to see that. The system is not good, and don’t even get me started on the horrible healthcare.

I've been watching KZbin vloggers for years now traveling abroad. I always see the difference and come back to looking at how bad the U.S. is. I'm glad I found a few videos (one of yours) sharing the same opinion. Not everything is bad, but the majority of things are a lot better elsewhere. America is not the greatest Country anymore. It once was... and the "American dream" was a thing. Somewhere we lost our way.
