	Going Dutch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Going Dutch is a slang term that means that each person eating at a restaurant or paying admission for entertainment pays for himself or herself, rather than one person paying for everyone.
		The Dutch were already internationally known as scrooges, and English rivalry with The Netherlands especially during the period of the Anglo-Dutch Wars gave rise to several phrases including Dutch that promote certain negative stereotypes.
		In Spain, "going Dutch" is attributed to Catalans, due to a stereotype that they are greedy.

		The act passed the lower house of the Dutch Parliament by a vote of 104-40 in November, and the Senate on April 10 (just as the annual remembrance of the Holocaust was beginning), 46-28.
		A former Dutch senator, Edward Brongersma, a man with no physical or psychological illness, was helped to die by a doctor last year because he believed he was living "a pointless and empty existence." The doctor was acquitted.
		The Dutch have changed the equation; life is now, in Dr. Sahm's terminology, "only one of two legal options," and if we choose to live we will be "held accountable." It is a repulsive redefinition of the gift of life.

		The Dutch are a paradigm of tolerance and liberalism.
		The Dutch have shown us that even the most decent people are driven in desperation to do distasteful things when the harm caused by the faux-liberal consensus leaves them no alternative if they are not to commit social suicide.

		Next, the Dutch were occupied by the French as well (from 1795 to 1813) and during this period French became the official language, but apart from the fact that a lot of French words were 'imported' in Dutch language, nothing dramatic happened to the language itself.
		Both Dutch and English have over the centuries got rid of the most of their grammatical complexities, but English takes the cake: it is by far the simplest European language.
		On top of that, the inability of the average Dutch speaker to adapt to the general British custom of raising the voice a pitch at the end of a sentence will only add to the impression that the Dutch are rude.
