  1. Nonsense, Belgium has one of the highest debt in the EU. You're broke very soon. Growth says nothing. The US had growth while borrowing 11 trillion in 8 years. Growth says nothing if you borrow it. They borrowed in 8 years half the gdp of the entire EU. Insane amount to borrow! Russia has growth too and a 21% interest rate on loans. Not good. Taxes are also very high. Over 46000 euro's it's 50%. In the Netherlands you pay 37% to 73000 euro's. Belgium has one of the highest taxes of the EU in a lower middle class bracket. I would find a job in Luxembourg and go shopping in Belgium.

  2. Social net? You are all gonna drown in Belgium in a 100 years. We in the Netherland need to start thinking to put dams on the border with Belgium soon. You've no shore water protection at all. It's over for Belgium. Antwerp and everything inbetween will be under water. 30% of Belgium in the sea. You better start spending soon. The Delta Works took us 40 years to build in the Netherlands. You better start building soon.
