Switzerland - a free country
The "Investment Comments" Mr. Hummler (http://www.wegelin.ch/xfer/print/pub/kom/kom_255de.pdf) is a strong reading of what was sometimes emphasized in the blogosphere (http : / / arlesheimreloaded.ch / article / meer_von_kleinen_schweizen_hummler). The author brings much to the point that I do not want to summarize here again. The following sentence is underlined. "Second, you have to see that a considerable part of the federal administration and the political elite is not far removed conceptually from what earlier than"
was named national social and fiscal disaster "There are want this phenomenon to some extent also in the intact otherwise fairly Switzerland, and there is also the nomenclature that promote this structure or at least maintained. "
I see, of course, exactly the same. I also wonder who for the Swiss trends more redistribution can avoid altogether. Of primary importance here seems to question why Switzerland is to this day has not fallen so sharply in the redistribution of delusion as some surrounding states. The answer may lie in the local political culture. The parties in Switzerland often honestly believed to still own ideas and voices are not pure maximizer. In our neighboring states but the latter is exactly the case, Prime example is Sarkozy's UMP, for every good idea is to bring votes. This property of the party system would be a system-driver towards more redistribution - to the national bankruptcy (in this sense, I've been always been critical to populitischen action by the SVP, although I share a core concern of this party and feel quartered therefore permanent existential). The politico-economic reasons for the failure of democracy in the direction of more and more redistribution are not new. I am content with
Hummler positions in complete agreement, even if certain things shown somewhat exaggerated. A critical remark would I add, in terms of funded provision. This is one of the two cards more or less implicitly to be sufficient protection against the rigors of the upcoming demographic factors considered redistribution. Which however is so in any case. Fully funded pension is superior to a pay system in many ways, it dissolves but the basic problem that arises when all the same old (in the whole OECD) and there is little new young "contributor" is: the accumulated assets to increase the economic production not, but the resulting outgoing purchasing power allows a redistribution of the institutions of economic production to the pensioners. The purchasing power of the "productive Forces "takes on in relation to the" dissaving from "and that the stronger than that demographic aging is marked. Remedy only to increase the participation in the labor market by more children, later retirement age, etc. The other
Europe Map shows not only the explicit public debt, the implicit public debt. It comes to Switzerland away pretty well. This central statement will, if I have this understood correctly, publish Merz in this or next month, a report, namely the long-term prospects of the national debt . Let's see what it achieves.

Jack Astors' Crab & Lobster Warm Dip
SVP - Leader of the bourgeois?
With Widmer-Schlumpf SVP, the first time a Federal Councillor, whose dossier strength and experience makes her a pioneer in the Bundesrat. Too bad that the SVP has maneuvered itself into a so-called "opposition". In Switzerland there is only one possible opposition to the "Classe politique": the people. In recent polls but the people have mostly voted against the SVP.
The current problems of the SVP "leader Equipe happy but a little, given the lack of respect these people, not only against petty criminals, but also to the (sometimes superior) arguments of their opponents.
And I would be the subject content of the SVP did not averse. Somehow I feel that the SVP continues to bring their issues independently ikonoklasitschen the boat often, even if the answer to the question does not come from SVP-series (there just needed more people like E. Widmer-Schlumpf). Perhaps the election results without excessively aggressive marketing would be even greater ...

Gay Public Washrooms In Toronto
political circus on the road II
The People's Party is divided now into "blochertreue" and "liberal". As a liberal I am generally not party leaders "loyal". If even "true", then on the Constitution and its institutions, such as the Federal Council. The beating of the Central Committee of the SVP on government loyalty and consistency against any party organs is unworthy of a democratic and liberal state. This is almost too like the Soviets in the 20s. are blochertreuen Thus the name of freedom not to support. Whether it is deserved, however, the "liberal" wing support once an open question, particularly since the advocates of a liberal economic policy was often more "blochertreu" are. The story was supposed to have taught that the interests of business leaders who not only represented but in the short term to abuse their own interest. There is really no alternative to an alliance of liberals and advocates of economic freedom.
