https://news.yahoo.com/switzerland-h...l?guccounter=1

Switzerland will hold a referendum on whether to strip the government of its power to impose new lockdown measures.

It comes amid an increasing national debate about the rights of individuals, the Financial Times reported.

The Swiss government this week tightened existing measures amid concern about new, more transmissible strains of the virus which have been linked to rising infection rates

afaik switzerland is one of, if not the country, that comes closest to real direct democracy with regular referendums on all kinds of things

mirin but if you had the same thing in a heavily brainwashed country such as the US right now, chances are it'll screw you over until people realize how deranged their beliefs are

I think so, but I'm not sure how exactly it's all calculated when there are nationwide referendums

wanna hear a joke? they closed down all restaurants (aka small businesses) but the restaurant at the parliament building in berne is open




the cantons forfeited their rights to make smaller adjustments (lockdown wise) because they did not want to have the responsibility for it - so yes parliament AKA monsieur alain berset has full power




there's also a couple of watch makers and chocolate specialists

you're still ahead of the rest of the europe.

you guys actually had referendums on chit like whether or not to keep public broadcast services which germany is trying to avoid at all costs because they know they'd likely get destroyed. people don't want to pay 30 bucks a month for some bullcrap brainwashing program that they do not watch.

they closed that organization sending the bills

and opened a new one, put the price down to $365 and are now justifying it saying "$1 per day is fair!!!"

JFL ANOTHER REFERENDUM FOR NOTHING, OF COURSE MEDIA CHANNELS TALKED 24/7 ABOUT IT HOW THEY NEED THAT FREE MONEY JFL AND GUESS WHAT NOW THE MAJOR NEWSPAPERS STILL HAVE A PAYWALL ON THEIR WEBSITES




switzerland is not ahead of the rest of europe, they are exactly on the same level since 1971, the year they gave women voting rights

that wasn't the only mistake btw but a big one, allowing media monopoly is another one
according to what I've read, you actually voted to keep them. apparently people found the proposal to be 'too radical' and hence majority voted no. I don't know how bad public broadcasting in switzerland is. but looking at the results, it's probably not as bad as in other places.

but the mere fact that you've had a referendum is what puts you ahead. I know in germany they'd likely get voted into non-existence and that would be glorious. that's why I'm mirin.

however... how did switzerland get rich? by handling other peoples scams - mostly black money.. do you think they can't handle their own scams?
honest question, do you have more foreign friends or more „native“ swiss?

i am in austria and i have more foreigner friends

this question has also some relevance to austria, germany... these country claim to be super efficient and hard workers while they are not and just exploited other countries in the past

Netherlands is also a good example

my uni has 32 students and 4 of them you can say are "purely swiss"


i'd say when it comes to the super close and good friends (which i have 6) 2 of them are swiss, 1 italian (do you count that as swiss?), 1 greek, 1 albanian, and 1 español
No turks ? Maybe swiss i different after all, in austria you get the looks if you look balkan/turk and i am saying that after years of trying to blend in

where in austria do you live? not in vienna, right ?.. i think in big cities no one cares.. i usually don't rly feel like i get "looks" - except from chicks but that's cuz i'm chad
In Vienna mang, hipsters here are all „i like other cultures“ but they have not a single friend from other cultures and cant even differiante between turks and jugos

PS: There are many girls who love us here, but they dont introduce us to their social circle, because we are machos

doesnt matter had seks

elab on the "they dont introduce us to their social circle" ? girls are always super eager to brag with their boyfriends to their girlfriends lol

also JFL @ trying to bang austrian girls anyways, balkan girls mog austrian girlsHARD

especially you have it better.. vienna bro.. czech republic, slovakia, hungary, slovenia and blessed-by-god croatia is right next door
thats why i only had few austrian pancake ass girls

balkan girls and persians are the best

i am in a russian social circle also, easiest lays ever especially when they know you work in a bank

Czech/Slovak Girls are too pancakie for me, i can be your wing man though if you are into them

But than give me some big ass yozgat girls in return

you can have all the turkish girlssrsi dont care about them, they get mogged by everything IMHO

i'm unaware on czech and slovaks but assuming i think ruskis are #1 i'd guess they're not too far off
Haha nah i didnt work for UBS, for now

Only for big austrian banks and the only non austrian banks i worked for were ING and Unicredit

Well but there are some nice looking turkish girls here, but i never dated a single one, only two kurdish girls from turkey... they were clingy af, i can imagine turkish girls are similar

Id love to bang an albanian, chechen girl one day, biggest asses and cute faces... but impossible to date them

And yes i am balkanbrah and ofc i dating them is ****ty here, because the community is big but everybody knows each other, meaning much drama and even lost friends who wanted to date the same girl but never said it

yep, I guess how well something will work depends on the culture and past issues

Switzerland has remained very passive in terms of warfare

but yeah in the USA they will vote in socialism

and you know what they say you vote it in, you shoot yourself out

I am from an Eastern EU country very close to Turkey and all of my friends are British and Chinese as I live in the UK

I have an Austrian mate but ofc he would be very friendly given that we were in the same academic social circle, he did uni in London and that kunt is top 5 in the course and is now doing a PhD in Switzerland JFL.

Thats the major issue i guess, us southern euros have to many expectations about friendship etc, while germans/austrians are cold and wont invite you to their house/apartment after years of knowing them

Bulgarian or Romanian ?
