Squatting Reflects the Harsh Truth of Reality

Often times, we cannot help but feel sorry for the people trying to barely survive the harshness of life. Squatting is not just a major problem in the Netherlands, it is rampant in all parts of the world. Despite the efforts of the government to solve this overdue problem, we are still in a limbo seeking for answers. Finding a home even for the creatures in the Amsterdam zoo seem too complicated for us to solve. So what is the right approach in dealing with this problem? Is it going to be by force? Or are we going to choose the path of empathy?

What About Them?

Krakengaatdoor has investigated on this subject. Squatting is not easy to look at. It is unsightly, needless to mention, the heavy drama involved in the lives of squatters. If we talk about the easy way out, it will boil down to using force. Then there’s a question that will be left unanswered, what about them? What about the children? They have a 60% chance of repeating the history of their parents. We can’t be happy thinking about them and enjoying Amsterdam holiday at the same time. They are the reason why problem solvers like us exist. This is the dogma of our society that we need to break. But it’s bigger than us. Despite the impossibility of the mission, we can’t find a good reason to back down.

Liberation Through Practical Information and Legal Advise

If you are on the other side of the boat, know that there are laws meant to protect you. Knowledge is power. Many movements like us have provided practical information to help people like you. History repeats itself. People’s homes were taken away from them because they are ignorant of the law. Now that we are living in a world where information travels faster than ships, you have the advantage that most people back in those time didn’t have. Educate yourself or you will find yourself looking for Amsterdam hotels cheap to spend the night. Though there is no guarantee that you will keep your home, at least you’ll know where you stand.

Eviction Resistance Movement

We are happy to announce that there were cases of resistance won in the high court. It is not a 100% guarantee that you will not be evicted, but it’ll give you a good chance. The first step of achieving the Amsterdam Heineken experience is knowledge. Eviction Resistance movements may help you in terms of finding the right attorney, get knowledge about the clauses that will affect the court’s decision, and possible relocation assistance just in case the decision will not be won in your favour.

We resist force eviction and seek fairness because eviction doesn’t only make a person homeless, it can kill dreams and aspirations.
