Dutch Emigration

Are we seeing the first of a new wave of European emigration? It’s possible. If the Netherlands doesn’t start working on restriction of immigration soon, they may be facing a mass exodus of their original citizens. Not that this is all the fault of the immigrants: many of them are undoubtedly decent people. However, extreme demographic change can cause social pressures, and (as the article points out) semi-socialist domestic policy doesn’t help matters much. I expect more Dutch will be moving to Australia and New Zealand, as many of them aren’t particularly fond of America’s foreign policies. That’s kind of amusing; Australia supports the US most of the time anyhow.
