This is even more hilarious than usual. Has anyone told the hysterics at Forbes which one is Switzerland?

Folks, it's that little, ultra-right-wing super-rich country in the middle of the continent? The one that has decided to never join the EU, never do anything that the rest of Europe wants to do, and sit in the middle of the continent charging tariffs and customs control fees and making half the long-haul trucks and trains go the long way around to avoid the nonsense? Yeah, the cute little country that pioneered the untraceable numbered bank account and had to be sued and sued and sued and pilloried for decades before it finally agreed to allow other countries to try to recover their stolen wealth? That charming, picturesque vacation spot where if you're rich enough you can pay to have your street declared private?

If Switzerland is the new Socialist, then let's just throw out all the dictionaries and speak in grunts, because words have officially stopped meaning anything. Thanks, Forbes!

When Obammer says let's raise the minimum wage, Repubicans say higher wages will cost jobs. But CEO pay has been going up and I don't see any sign of job losses in that sector. That's because Go-Pee faith based economics says "less money for poor people motivates them to work harder while more money for wealthy people motivates them to work harder".

Oh no! Now the Swiss won’t be able to hire the best of the executives or maybe they’ll get people that are not so much motivated by money as doing a really good job. Oh The Horror!
