Oh my, I love this country.
We call this kind of behaviour 'niet lullen zakken vullen' (don't talk just grab the money). When we are finished we leave to countries with a better (tax) climate: Belgie, Portugal, Greece Thailand etc.
This is a country to make money, not to live in.

It isn't a coincidence that the 'new' members of the EC are succesfully opposing the patent legislation while the others behave like sheep. The patent lobby is not yet established in those countries yet. Now they realized they forget something there and now they come to those countries with their dollars (not euros) and 'buy' their votes for their assets. Fortunately for them these countries have a low price level so it will be a bargain after all. It's such a simple game once you notice it.
