To put that into perspective, Switzerland with 8 million people is running a trade surplus equivalent to if the US ran a $4 trillion surplus Switzerland innovates in high quality expensive items and attracts all kinds of Financial Corporations and investment and has great infrastructure to compete experts warn that Nations such as Switzerland, Germany, China etc must do more to raise consumption because this imbalance is causing other Nations to rack up debt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayesha Erotica 1,924 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Switzerland is the most innovative country in the world and a true direct democracy unlike the EU where citizens are NOT asked about decisions, they just have to accept itSwitzerland is the best proof how scheißy the EU is and that you don't need to be in the EU to be extremely succesful - in fact, being in the EU is hurting the countries who are in the EU, they are to be blamed.Switzerland is a very productive country and is scientifically leading in the world (CERN, ETH Zürich) Your boyfriend comes over with a bit of gun oil Says he wants to step on new soil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Germans did worse shouldnt Germany get the same distrust then by this logic? Most people involved in this would be long dead by now although it shows Switzerlands motto of econony over anything else is obviously an ideal held for a very long time and likely wont change anytime soon. Is that why you dont trust them? Lets be honest, a Country with only 8 million people holding a currency that is considered a "reserve currency" is not normal. To gain such a status economy must be really be the thing the Swiss focus above anything else. I almost envy them tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
