Saving sick seals
For decades, sick baby seals that wash ashore have been rescued by the Dutch, taken to shelters and nursed back to health. It seems like the humane thing to do and of course seals are well-loved by many people. But is it a good thing to rescue these seals or nurse them to health when there is no shortage of these? And there's an argument to be made that saving the sickly babies interferes with natural selection.

Youth unemployment
The Netherlands is in a recession. In fact, the Dutch economy has been under strain since the 2008 global financial meltdown. This hasn't led to the an explosion in unemployment but this doesn't mean it's always easy to find a job. In particular, recent graduates with little or no work experience are finding it nearly impossible to find proper work. The unemployment rate among Dutch people between the ages of 15 and 24 is 20 percent.

Police officers with PTSD
It's well known that soldiers returning from war are likely to suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). But the same seems to be the case for Dutch police officers who have to deal with situations that can cause psychological trauma. Both Rick Franx and Ellis de Koning developed PTSD while working as police officers. They say that instead of being offered help, they were forced out of their jobs.
