I would imagine part of the difference is explained by the fact that if you move within the US you'll still encounter the same language and similar culture. If you move from one EU country to another, odds are you'll encounter a different language and culture, so moving intra-EU is a much more difficult proposition.

Very true. The Netherlands needs a TON of healthcare workers right now. But you can't just hire someone from Greece or Spain who doesn't speak the language.

It depends I guess. Does a surgeon or anesthesiologist have to know Dutch to be successful? Or even a dentist? Btw the Netherlands has quite a few people who don't speak Dutch at all..

Southern Europeans usually don't speak English very well either. So there's no easy solution.

Well yes they do. My English is pretty decent, but I think most people would have problems having technical discussions about their health in English. Imagine a 70 year old with dementia in a nursing home. Miscommunication in healthcare costs lives.

Yes, (by far) most people want to be able to talk to their surgeon or dentist.

We also have a severe lack of housing in Germany right now mostly due to this intra-EU migration. It's good they all found jobs here, but if you are in the market to rent right now it sucks hard, especially at the lower end. This needs better management.

I don't see how that is not a good thing. It should theoretically spark the building business?

It's like complaining that your company has to many customers.

>It's like complaining that your company has to many customers.

Well, management accepting more orders without enough people/space to do the work can be a pain.

It's bad for the customers who are not being served something they require to live normally. If my company was the only one making food and we had too many customers, that would suck hard, no?

The market is too slow too and hindered by many things (which make sense otherwise but are a problem here).

You don't see how that is bad for people in demand of living space right now / in the near future?
