Economy 53,134 Posted October 1, 2015 Author Share Posted October 1, 2015 It's incredible to see the variety of political ideologies that occupy the top 20. Very neat report.many factors besides ideology plays a role of course but part of it isnt just the strategy you use but also how well you carry out and implement that strategy i think in the case of Switzerland they are landlocked which fir trade is a huge disadvantage, and they do not hold many valuable natural resources... still despite that, on human innovation alone they created an economy so competitive and so stable that their currency is the only currency of a small Country seen as a reserve. Every time things get tough or uncertain people run up the Swiss Franc even more than they do the US Dollar or even gold sometimes!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Economy 53,134 Posted October 1, 2015 Author Share Posted October 1, 2015 Wait till their economy collapses. they probably have the best record in the world for consistant prosperity going back decades. They had 1 nasty recession in the 80s i believe it was due to a housing bubble and that has been about it for your economy to collapse you need some major imbalance or root problem like too much debt (government, corporate, snall business or consumer debt), or competitiveness issue or unsustainable economy Switzerland doesnt have any major issues on any of those things Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
