Answer to Question 1

Probably right. This is another example of the theory of the second best. If the Netherlands suffers an unfavorable shift in output demand, Dutch capital can flee abroad, leaving even more unemployed Dutch workers behind than in the case of government regulations that were to hinder the movement of capital outside the Netherlands. Severe and persistent regional depressions could result, worsened by the likelihood that the relatively few workers who did successfully emigrate would be precisely those who are most skilled, reliable, and enterprising.
