European Union has cost Holland lotsa lotsa lotsa money.......

And made none?
I mean, Holland enjoys higher than normal living standards because someone is buying up their surplus shit.
Without this "someone", meaning the rest of the EU or the Asian market, Holland would not have such good standards of living.
It's like the old adage between the pimp ("without me this bitch would be toast") and the prostitute. Soon enough the pimp starts thinking that he is an intricate of the process, when in reality, it is the sucker and the suckee who provide the value in the exchange.
