The situation in the Netherlands is slightly better when it comes to unemployment but it is worse then years ago. The political groups still do it like in Germany since they want votes. Hardly anyone does really understand that the promisses made during the elections is not something they promise but will try to get it through the parliament. They need to trade with the other parties in the government (more or less like in Germany)

@hanswolters I certainly wouldnt sell the Dutch, Americans, Germans, or any other country as having the perfect government or system, or even being better.
There are a million different types of governments but the problem all boils down to the same in my mind... the people dont have a good sense of solutions to the problems, they have tunnel vision, a hyperfocus on one way of viewing the world that dominates everythign and leads to people supporting ideas that cause more harm than good in the big picture... Even in america the conservatives will reject every solution the liberals have for a problem and will reject the problem even exists, and then the liberals do the exact same for the conservatives.. so you have a sea of people that are a mixture of extremes and not one of among them is supporting solutions that really consider the valid concerns both sides present.
Its no different in other countries from what I've seen, just to varying degrees and perhaps with more than just conservative vs liberal.. but the same basic problem... a mixture of extremes does not make a moderate well rounded solution.
