They certainly have the right attitude about prostitution and drugs.

Their drug laws aren't THAT lax actually. The laws against hard drugs (non-pot) are quite harsh, and pot is much more restricted than most outsiders seem to think from what I understand. It's not as if you walk around seeing people smoking joints everywhere.

You just reminded me that I have never been to any foreign country other than Canada and that was more than 10 years ago (unless you count DC embassies). And in fact, I have no been to any STATE other than Minnesota and North and South Dakota in over 5 years.

The Netherlands would be paradise on earth if it was less socialist. OTherwise the best it can get in my opinion is the status of best nation on easrth.

If they got rid of their government, they'd be reclaimed by the ocean in no time.

That would be paradisical though - a longer coast line for Germany, and Kiribati and the Maldives saved for the time being. Tongue

(Alright, so only parts of the Netherlands would sink. There'd be a chain of islands across the country's eastern shore, a much enlarged Ijssel Sea, and an ever-changing Rhine delta. The eastern part - the part bordering Germany - wouldn't be affected at all, thence no longer coast line for Germany.)
