G-20 Meeting And Dutch Progressiveness

What did we learn at the G-20? Answer to everything for Europe? Regulate! Regulate! Reg-u-late!

Answer for the Americans? Spend, spend, spend!

Questions: Is Holland truly a progressive nation? Are they social "trail blazers?" Are nations engaging in group think citing it as a nation to look up to it on social issues? Maybe their views on social matters is good for its populace but does it export well?

What is progress? Is the progressive social agenda nothing but politics by other means?

Here in Quebec, the intellectual and political classes tend to hold Scandinavia and Holland in the highest regard and seek to copy them on social issues. This raises a red flag for me.
