10 Reasons Why Switzerland May Be The Best Country In The World

337 Comments

Recently I went to Switzerland, partly to see if it really is the best country in the world. In this piece I will argue that this reputation indeed is well-deserved.

The World Factbook tells us the following about Switzerland:

The Swiss Confederation was founded in 1291 as a defensive alliance among three cantons. In succeeding years, other localities joined the original three. The Swiss Confederation secured its independence from the Holy Roman Empire in 1499. A constitution of 1848, subsequently modified in 1874, replaced the confederation with a centralized federal government.

Switzerland’s sovereignty and neutrality have long been honored by the major European powers, and the country was not involved in either of the two world wars. The political and economic integration of Europe over the past half century, as well as Switzerland’s role in many UN and international organizations, has strengthened Switzerland’s ties with its neighbors. However, the country did not officially become a UN member until 2002. Switzerland remains active in many UN and international organizations but retains a strong commitment to neutrality.

If one goes on and look at specific dimensions, linked to economics, politics, society and culture, at least 10 are worthy of consideration and serve as proof of the nation’s high quality.

1. High average incomes and low taxes

The monthly median gross salary of jobholders, on all educational levels, is 5979 (roughly $6180 US dollars). Although the financial service sector, and related such, make up a large part of the job cluster, blue collar workers earn a lot as well. Only Norway pays one hour’s service more than Switzerland.

Needless to say, the cost of living is also high in general, but like in Norway it is possible to find a situation in which a worker can save a lot or have a good balance between saving and consumption.

For instance, if a person earns 6000 Swiss francs per month and the rent for a spacious apartment in Zurich is 2000 Swiss franc monthly, then a large bulk of money is still left since the tax burden in Switzerland is one of the world’s lowest.

2. Low crime rates

Crime statistics are a bit fuzzy and depends on a variety of factors and can differ from one category to another. One can also argue that more advanced crimes might be linked to Switzerland’s clandestine banking system.

However, regarding both petty crime and violent crime, those two categories that generally have the most significance for an individual, Switzerland is indeed a very safe country. For instance, its largest city, Zurich, has virtually no no-go areas.

3. A good balance between nationalism and globalism

Switzerland is linked to several international institutions, such as NATO, the U.N. and various globalist associations such as the World Economic Forum in Davos. The “customer-oriented” bank system, although more conformed to general European and global standards lately, is yet another such dubious element. Additionally, it has several significant bilateral agreements with the EU.

However, since a large share of Swiss people are nationalists and the national conservative and right-wing populist Swiss People’s Party is the country’s largest (29.4% in 2015), an effective balance has been created. Formed in 1971 as a party for both urban entrepreneurs and farmers, SVP has become more populist and radical under the leadership of wealthy businessman Christoph Blocher and farmer Toni Brunner in the 2000s and forward. It also has a strong and well-educated youth section, SVP Junge, and is overall much more competent than many other similar parties around Europe.

Benefiting from direct democracy, SVP has suceeded in several anti-Islam and immigration-restrictionist referendums that they have set off by collecting more than 100,000 petition signatures from Swiss citizens. For instance, after a referendum in 2009, minarets are banned in public and both EU migrants and non-EU migrants are restricted by specific quotas.

Ethnically, it is over 90% European. The largest ethnic groups are German 65%, French 18%, and Italian 10%, while other such make up only 6% (mostly people from the Balkans). Still if a non-European can contribute and integrate well he can move there permanently and be granted a citizenship after 10 years without social welfare.

The economic policies, especially those of SVP, is a mix between classic liberalism and pragmatic conservatice policies with a strong protectionist element. Those in turn perfectly balance the globalism that is also a feature among the more left-leaning, largely French-speaking segments in Geneva and other cities on the country’s Western border. Both rural farmers and urban workers benefit from the system, which constitutes a fruitful compromise: it is open enough to avoid isolationism but nationalist enough to make it self-subsistent, wealthy, and largely independent.

4. Social conservatism

This point is linked to and largely overlaps the national conservatism among the Swiss German-speaking share of the population. Although a distinctively secularism-oriented state, Christianity, both Catholicism (38%) and Protestantism (26%), are integral parts of the country’s culture and one finds much less of post-Marxism, feminism and social justice warriors, although they are part of the liberal and social-democratic segments of the populace.

However, as a modern Western country it is at least one step toward complete liberation of female forces. Women’s suffrage was introduced after a referendum in 1971. In 1991, the canton Appenzell Innerrhoden was the last to allow women the vote on local issues. Yet the social conservative elements within the right counter the degeneracy. As expected, divorce rates are lower in the more rural than the urban areas. Another facet of social conservatism is the mandatory military service for men.

5. Regionalization of political influence

Somewhat similar to the United States, Switzerland builds on the confederation of 26 cantons with more or less distinctive regional features and preferences. Coupled with the direct democracy mentioned above, fertile soil for self-determination is the case. A person with the intent to move to Switzerland permanently can thus choose the one which conforms the most to one’s particular preferences.

6. Excellent infrastructure

The trains in Switzerland are some of the best in the world, even though the price levels can be repellent. For instance, I paid about 70 francs for a round-trip ticket between Zurich and Konstanz (in Germany, just at the Swiss border, near Bodensee). Other aspects of the infrastructure are likewise of very high standard. Switzerland is overall a high-tech country.

7. Beautiful nature

Switzerland has a temperate inland climate with cold winters and quite humid summers.Thirty-four degrees Celsius in August are not rare. Some positive characteristics are the Alps, picturesque small villages, and lots of high hills. The views are stunning, especially in the Alps and around Bodensee. Also parts of Zürich, the Old Town in particular, are very easy on the eye.

8. A great geographic location in Europe

The country is also located next to Austria, Liechtenstein, Germany, France and Italy, and not far from Slovenia and Croatia either, which makes its position excellent for a traveler. Eastern, Northern and Southern Europe are also within reach.

9. High gun ownership rate

Although the comparisons with the U.S. are misguided since it fails to distinguish that the gun ownership among non-criminals in the U.S. generally works, Switzerland has a very high gun ownership rate and yet very little violent crime. Every freedom-loving masculine man should be pleased by this condition.

10. No Islamic terrorism (yet)

Muslims (nearly 5% of the Swiss population) are not allowed to behave just as they please and the total number of Muslims is in relative terms much lower compared to neighboring Austria, France and Germany. This, paired with a rather strong military capacity, makes terror attacks less likely to occur.

Yet it might of course happen and some claim that is only a matter of time before it eventually does.

In summary

There are pros and cons with every country, and Switzerland is no exception. Interrelated phenomena such as secularism (which often goes hand in hand with increasing secularisation), liberalism, post-Marxism and globalism have affected the alp nation as well. However, in terms of degree there are palpable differences between Switzerland and many other European countries. It has managed to find a more appropriate balance between nationalism and globalism with a distinctive conservative flavor.

Given the low taxes, high incomes and standards of living, it is one of the best countries to migrate to and live permanently in. An English-speaking person should have no problem to learn Swiss German and abide by the law to the extent that one will be granted a citizenship in due time.

  2. Regarding Switzerland’s low crime rates:
    “Gun ownership is a mandatory community duty, not a matter of individual free choice. In Switzerland, defence of the nation is not a job for professional soldiers or for people who join the army to learn technical skills for civilian jobs. Defence of the nation is the responsibility of every male citizen.”
    http://www.guncite.com/swissgun-kopel.html
    If this is indeed true, it probably has a lot to do with why crime rates are so low…

    1. This was PRECISELY the model that the U.S. was supposed to follow as well, and did for quite a while, until WW1 in any event.
      The crime rate out here in rural civilized flyover is at or lower than Switzerland’s. Not dissing Switzerland, just noting that their (and our) theory is correct when you get down to brass tacks.

      1. South Africa has one of the toughest gun laws as well, pretty strange that they couldn’t stop criminals( foreign and domestic) acquiring AKM /AK 47 assualt rifles. I’ve never understood to logic of gun control nuts

        1. As trite as it sounds, “if guns were outlawed, only outlaws would have guns”
          is abso-fukkin-lutley true and of impeccable logic.

        2. It is 100% about feelz and nothing else. Even looking at the issue with basic impartial logic destroys their entire world view, so they go instead of tears, crying on television and blood dancing.

        3. I believe John A. MacDonald, Canada’s first prime minister, said this as well. Oh how far we’ve fallen.

        4. The logic is control. If you have an armed populace and try to impose a hardcore police state, you end up with armed revolt. If you have an unarmed populace, you can pretty much do what you want to them with no fear of meaningful reprisal. Gun control worked just as intended for Hitler, Lenin, Stalin, Pol Pot, Castro, Mao, et al. As Chairman Mao so accurately stated “True power comes from the barrel of a gun.”

      2. If you take out the “gun free zones”, we have some of the best crime statistics in the world. Even if you just take the “gun free cities” out of the equation, we rise dramatically.
        When you never know who will pump you full of lead, you never know which crime will be your last. Most criminals are cowards by nature, and that fear alone is often enough to deter them.

        1. Yep. I forget the exact number, but if you remove the 13 largest cities from the U.S. the violent crime rate becomes nearly immeasurably low. It’s always the gun free zones that account for the crime, it actually has little to do with “city”. Cheyenne, Wyoming is as gun friendly as it can be and the crime rate there is theoretical at best.

        2. Well, except maybe drug dealing, but they’re apparently pretty chill for dealers. I live in northern Colorado at the moment (going home to Texas one day), and it is well known that Wyoming is the place to go for illegal drugs.

        3. Drug dealing isn’t a violent crime. I was speaking only in the context of violent crimes. Obviously jaywalking has nothing to do with gun ownership. Heh.

        4. Can you imagine it?
          “Why did you discharge your entire magazine into this woman?”
          “Well, the crosswalk was like thirty feet away…”

        9. I really believe this should be mandatory to begin with, so I’m going to go ahead and agree with you.

        11. fuk that – the way they smell raw is pretty wretched. I dont imagine that gets better with fire.

        12. Ok I know Florida is full of idiots, but you really think they should all be shot? Well, yeah, I guess I can see it

        14. If you are referring to gang related violence that is orbital to drug dealing, then consider Project Exile. Back when Slick Willie was banging his way through the White House, we started a program in Virginia that took drug dealers and gang bangers with guns out of the state courts and put them in federal court for firearms violations. Having a gun got them a mandatory five years in the federal pen.
          Pretty soon the thugs on the Streets of Richmond wouldn’t be caught dead with a vegetable peeler on their person. It worked and violent crime went down. But that didn’t fit the “guns are bad” narrative of the Clinton administration, so I don’t think anyone else implemented it. It would be great if this administration would dredge it up and implement it for places like LA and Chicago. But you know who it would disproportionately affect so it would be called “rayciss.”

        15. Are we going hot against Kansas again? You know some of them will shoot back. Oh, you said…jay walkers…not Jayhawkers. 😉

        20. Currently reside in kcmo.
          Born and raised in Wyandotte.
          Not what anyone assumes when I say Kansas.

        21. Just curious since I bought my latest motorcycle over in KCK. It was my first foray into “that” KC, lol. My job and training bring me to the city about once a quarter.

        22. Blacks commit 50% or more of the murders
          and are about 12% of the population.
          Consider that only 6% are men.
          And that of those maybe only 4% are of crime-commuting age.
          So, 4% of the fucking population is committing 50% of the murders. Damn. That’s fucked up.

        24. Yes, white people who exist today brought those black people here, gave them guns and told them to shoot people. The jig is up, guilty as charged. Not.

        25. Part of the reason I moved out of Virginia was due to the increased drug abuse (crack cocain) and related crime and violence in the rural community I grew up in. This was spillover from the cities into the local black community (self segregation was still very much a thing on both sides, although I had a number of black friends). Interestingly enough, the percentage of blacks was falling (it had dropped from > 80% in the nineteen sixties, to 61% as of the most recent census).
          I was having more and more problems with crackheads showing up on my door step at all hours of the night trying to get money from me. Drug dealing was picking up in the small town nearby and the sheriff’s department was complicit (one of the key dealers was the sheriff’s wife’s cousin). I had to run a couple of the local hoods off at gunpoint.
          I explained to my wife that it was only a matter of time before I would have to shoot one of these guys and being ostensibly “white” (never mind some American Indian blood) I would not fare too well in front of a jury of my “peers.” Based on that and discriminatory property taxes, we packed up and moved to the Midwest. It was one of the smartest things I’ve done considering the state of affairs the Comunist-wealth of Virginia is in now. Diversity and and tolerance…gotta love it. LOL!

        26. WOW, CRACK in a rural setting? So it was mainly a thing for poor black folks eh? THAT is fucked up. Thank you for sharing your story. The East Coast is on a downward slide into hell.

        1. What about their excellent time pieces? Won’t anyone remember their excellent time pieces?

        4. I’m gonna have a good time tonight. Rock and roll music gonna play all night.

    2. Tina Turner interestingly learned German and became a Swiss citizen! It is a country with one of the longest times and strictest requirements to get a passport something like 11 years

    1. The anti feminist conference article starts out: “Somewhere in Switzerland on Saturday around 150 men’s rights activists will be gathering at a secret location for the “first international antifeminism meeting”
      A conference that is in an undisclosed location which means that if it was disclosed they would see the same shit that Roosh went through in Canada. This says a lot about the current state of affairs in Switzerland.

      1. Exactly, many people still think that country is an option when it’s aged, rife with misguided nationalism (the “German” part of the population thinks Hochdeutsch is a foreign language and their dialect sounds like an awful combination of Dutch and other pidgeon languages) while finishing the set up of another feminist gulag (previous step before the invasion).

  7. They also practice in usurious and shady international banking, probably the worst gentile offenders. Otherwise this article is spot on

  8. Everything mentioned in the article matches what flyover America is like to a tee (except being centrally located in Europe, obviously). I love Switzerland, but I’m more prone to just stay put and enjoy exactly the same beneficial living arrangements that they have, only over here, where there’s hella more room, hella more things to see and do, and where I speak the native tongue perfectly.
    That said, Switzerland is tits. Highly recommend traveling there.

    1. Good points made, GOJ – but I would wager the swiss 20 somethings women are prettier than the shit females in the USA.
      Drawback is that Switzerland has their borders open to the EU which means any piece-of-shit mongral that can make it to the EU shores can eventually end up in Switzerland. And I suspect Der Schweiz is under the same globalist agenda as any other western country in that area. The muslim population is surprisingly high there.

      1. Here it depends on where you’re at. With a huge amount of territory you can find as pretty or as ugly as you like if you’re willing to drive a day in any random direction. The lack of a unified culture (as in local cultures, which you would have in Switzerland) means it’s a dice roll. Girls in Georgia don’t give two shits how girls in Indiana are keeping themselves fit (or getting fat).

        1. Ok but I care about being in easy proximity to 20 somethings who are attractive – and europe’s women (including Swiss chicks) tend overall be more attractive that wasteland USA whichhome of the blue-haired fatties.

        2. I only see a blue hair once in a (literally….Hitler) blue moon. College towns (and I live near the largest college town in the nation and maybe the world, Columbus, Ohio) here will put most of Europe to shame on some days. The “wasteland USA” thing is *really* overplayed on ROK to be honest. A couple of pictures of Walmart or some rural podunk hellhole in Arkansas get thrown up, and then declared “the norm for the USA”. Which is bunkum.

        4. Holy cow, I just looked it up. OSU slipped to second place as far as “largest college in these united States”. Well waddayaknow?

        5. Honestly I didn’t realize it was that large, thought I’d just take a shit on your pride and suspected hyperbole.
          point taken…..

        6. Columbus, Ohio. That’s near where the Keatons lived in Family Ties 🙂 I do keep hearing nice things about Ohio – if I ever relocate to America I’d be tempted to go there.

        7. You live near a college town so your demographic is skewed. Sure there are many hot girls in their 20’s….but once they hit their 30’s they are so DONE.

      2. They are a globalist country. Davos is there every year. Australia is more nationalist.

    2. Yes. I would like to write more about how much I love American nature and to some extent people. So many great places. Perhaps we have a writer somewhere who has traveled to the bulk of states and can inform the readers about the best locations.

      1. I’ve been to most of the states, but not for long enough to judge. I can give some basic tips to prompt someone with decent experience, though.
        Major urban centers, as a rule, are completely skippable (Dallas, San Francisco, Denver, Chicago, NYC…), unless you have a particular thing you want to see like the Statue of Liberty or the Alamo. Outside of their individual gimmicks, they’re basically all the same – lots of people congregating in one place with tall buildings, either ignoring or being assholes to one another.
        Tourist trap areas are nice for a quick visit, but tend to be designed to suck your wallet dry. Fredericksburg, Texas, is a great example of a farming community with a downtown area selling useless trinkets for unreasonable prices.
        There are a few types of places worth checking out, though. The first is a truly small town – we’re talking populations of fifty to 1000. If you can find a place to stay nearby, you can usually expect to walk through a few smokehouses and dimestores between exploring the wilderness. Sometimes these little areas have something they’re famous for, like a barbecue recipe or a particular scenic attraction.
        The other is a mid-way town. Not quite a major city, but no longer a small town, either. Here you have more options for things to do and likely more places to meet locals and explore, but you also don’t have the features that attract SJW’s.

        1. Cool. I’ve been to many cities but I would like to see more of nature in for instance North Carolina, Georgia, Utah, Ohio, Kentucky and Idaho.

        4. Appalacian Trail in the Northeast, Berkshires in Massachusetts, White Mountains in New Hampshire, Trails in much of Maine, and lots upons lots of “Off the beaten path” hidden gems throughout New England. If you ever make it up to my stomping grounds I can give you a huge itinerary that would make you take many trips back.
          Outside of the East Coast, there is Yosemite, Rocky Mountains, Grand Canyon, Utah national parks, and Glacier National Park. These places may seem like what everyone has to see when in the US, but they are great for a reason. Would highly recommend

        5. Yeah, the coast has some cool spots but I’m a mountain man. Also, I hate sand and I’m whiter than a ghost.

        9. I was in Chicago today. It sucks. A bunch of concrete and glass piles covered in graffiti.

        10. Capital70a

        14. I hit up Northern New England for business frequently. I’d be very interested to know some cool places, if you’re up for sharing.

        16. Buffalo is ok for a mid-sized city if you live in the suburbs like Williamsville or the exurbs like Cambria. Its country and only 20 miles from a city if you want museums and outdoor cafes. Lockport, NY has a tiny little section that has a gourmet ice cream place and a cool cafe that gets bands, but no record stores. Those are in Buffalo. Its kind of charming and not too much crime.

        19. Definitely Cape Cod dude. Nice beaches. Classic restaurants. Out of the way. 0 Minorities. Everyone’s just a bit friendlier than your typical Masshole. Overall nice place to visit

      2. I can’t recall seeking your approval of my comment before I posted it.

    4. Yeah except for college campuses in the the Midwest where you won’t see any white couples but you will see white female students with Asian or Indian males. FACT

        2. You must live in some alternate reality because i rarely see a white woman asian man couple. You need to ask ghost to connect you with lolknee so he can help you get rid of some of that angst.

        4. What is the point of showing me something I already know to be true?
          It’s out of touch idiots on this site who swaddle themselves in their blanket of white male supremacy, assuring themselves that they are still unquestioned lord of the manor when in fact they’ve been demoted to stable hand and are sleeping on a pile of hay next to to the barn animals.

        6. I’m not saying I see it often.
          I am saying I almost never see young white couples (male and female). Most (almost all) white girls in their teens and 20s are either alone or (more commonly) with other girls. The rare times I see them with a male, it is often a non-white male.

        7. It must be where you live because I see young white couples all the time. Hell f anything I have been seeing more white man black woman couples when it comes to the interracial thing.

        9. Yes I live in the U.S. I have lived in Ohio, Oklahoma, Georgia, Kentucky, and now currently residing in Tennessee.

    5. what states do u recommend? I’m thinking somewhere in the mid west where i can buy a small house with maybe 5-10 acres and slowly just expand

      1. Arkansas has some amazing land in the Ozarks . Buffalo River, Quachita mountains…land is cheap with tons of rivers and lakes

        2. Black Oak Arkansas with the lead singer. “Jim Dandy to the Rescue” and “Cover of the Rolling Stone “

        7. NO!! You see the washboard in Cajun/zydeco bands e.g Buckwheat Zydeco etc.. I’ve never seen a “rock washboard” though…wow…

        8. Yeah, but then he’s stuck living in Arkansas.

      2. Central Ohio (obviously) but not Franklin county, live just outside of it in the rural counties. Cheap land, pretty girls, you’ll like it.

    6. Well, I was at a coffee shop recently in Kansas City, and who do I see in the majority? Somalians and Sudanese. All with the burqas on and barely speaking any English. That’s America 2.0. Not to mention, we bring in 100,000 H1b visa workers from India each year, who are quite literally low tier, beta, and disgusting, that I’ve seen towns now look like Bombay.

      1. We aren’t bringing these people in to be producers: we’re bringing them in to be consumers and to prop up the consumer based economy.

        1. Precisely right. At the malls here in the San Francisco Bay Area, it’s not Whites you see out at the malls or the movies. It’s low tier third world migrants who spend their dough.

        2. As a result, you see even Hollywood making trashy movies to appeal to the new “consumers”. Do you think any sensible White educated person wants to take their family out to was Fast N Furious 7?

        3. Exactly.
          I remember going to the theater in summer 1999: saw Deep Blue Sea and Chill Factor. Pretty original plots. Nothing like that anymore. Just special effects and car crashes Part 10

        5. Now, the shittiest of comedies will have at least one Paki or Indian douche just so to appeal to the new migrants (Silicon Valley, The Big Sick, Office Christmas Party, etc.). Hey, they are even now showing Bollywood movies in AMERICAN theaters now!

        11. No toilet paper in the bathrooms too? Most Indians have a hose and a handheld bucket to wipe their rears.
          Many Europeans use bidets but they also wipe with toilet paper.

        12. I hope the restrooms are good and clean. That kind of food gives you the runs.

        14. I saw a Bollywood movie, it was a real tearjerker about a little girl from Pakistan who gets lost and an Indian man-a total Alpha dude-protects here and gets her back home. Quite good actually, I liked it.

        15. So they don’t use their fortune they found in America to help their less well off kin in the old country?

        16. The actor of that movie, Salman Khan, ran over a homeless man while he was intoxicated, and ended up killing the man. He walked away with no jail time or conviction. Why don’t you watch a hollywood equivalent of that movie called Lion.

        17. Right winger in CA here. Silicon valley is the only thing keeping CA afloat. Once the commie government raises taxes high enough and the tech companies are forced to leave, this place is fucked.

        18. They will probably all go to India. The CEOs might stay or move to Singapore or Switzerland.
          California is a textbook example of how liberal policies worsen the division in a society.

      2. I live in the lehigh valley and since last year they have been building distribution centers like crazy. LV population went up by 15k between 2015 and 2016. sadly 13,500 of those they said were latino immigrants. I wouldn’t of belived that until i went to the movies a while back and the line was 30 people long and everyone seemed like Spanish was their first language. Turning the great conservative LV into a mexican hellhole

        2. I went to a playground in Allentown and it was a majority of minorities. Fuck that.

      4. Tell me about it. I live in kc. Lots of burqas walking around along with resident black street people.

      5. India could be the worst place to live on Earth. Looked at a list of bad places, India is worse than North Korea.

      6. That sucks. Las Cruces, NM is actually quite nice but not many jobs there.

    7. Switzerland is a hell of a lot more educated, higher income/expensive, and way healthier than flyover America.

      1. So they live to 75 instead of 74.5? Why the Fountain of Youth was in Switzerland and not Florida. Ponce de Leon was wrong!

      3. I’ll alert all of my neighbors that they’re idiots compared to the Swiss. This may shock some of the surgeons I know, but it’s for the best that they were aware.
        And “Educated” is really overrated and valued way too highly by people who only have that as the sole achievement of their life. I prefer honest, decent, kind and hard working over “educated” if I can find it.

        1. Their education manifests itself with practical libertarian policies and healthy lifestyles. Which is decidedly not how much of flyover territory lives. I like the religious values in flyover America. But they come with many negatives themselves.

        4. College education is not everything. Ask an electrician who owns his own business, he is basically printing money.

        1. From what I understand and have observed, they have very strict immigration policies. I still go there every couple of years to go skiing and their demographics look the same now as they did decades ago.

        2. was half-kidding anyway, but switzerland is an example that not many acknowledge – traditional and nationalistic and natural, yet so au courant, advanced and even ‘liberal’

        3. Right. I think characterizing flyover USA as being similar to Switzerland is simply inaccurate. Maybe some of the wealthier conservative counties of Colorado, but overall the Midwest is not that similar to Switzerland.

    8. Does the Midwest has the same level of infrastructure as Switzerland? Honest question.

    9. I like the Swiss model as well, but I have every intention of staying right here in the Midwest. Perhaps if I were a young single man, the prospect might appeal to me, but I have too much invested in my life here to consider bailing out at this point. America is my home and I will stay and fight if necessary.

  9. Please, somebody, make an article about best reasons why Romania is a
    good traditional country (we have very low immigration here -mostly
    because we’re too poor for muslims to stay here but anyway is a good
    thing; we hold some traditional values- especially in rural area, the
    politicians want to make an referendum about family (if people agree or not with gay marriage and I can personally guarantee that more than half of romanians are against it so they’ll vote according to their traditional views about family), romanians are also (around 80%) religious people (
    orthodox) they’re the most friendly/hospitable/and tolerant with minorities/strangers people you can possible meet in this part of Europe, we have one of the most beautiful/diversified nature from the entire Europe, a rich history, in rural areas people (both men and women) are hardworking, family loving and respectful with everyone and we have pretty monuments/castles to visit. Please, since I’m not very good at writing articles like this, someone can personally contact me to tell him more about Romania in order to write an article here?

      2. Yes, I want to write but what if I’m not good enough? I don’t want people to laugh on my expense here because I SUCK writing articles. I think there are a lot of people with talent here who can write way better than me.

        3. Wow, then I’ll start writing and try to publish it, with your help. Thank you everyone for supporting me, you’re such great guys.

        7. This thread is littered with obscure cultural references already and it’s only been out an hour.

        8. There are many Americans who can’t write English as well as you 🙂

        16. This is the best compliment I’ve heard today from a stranger. Thank you and greetings from Romania.

        18. Yeah, $6 million ain’t what it used to be. Today he’d be fitted with a couple of those bouncy runner type prosthetic legs, a red clown nose and shoved out of the hospital to fend for himself.

        24. I think your super-power is self awareness.
          No worries, if your article truly sucks, our kind proprietor will kill it.

        27. Unless its gay secks that leads to aids.
          Its better to regret not doing that than to , you know, be gay and have aids.
          …
          Same applies to fat skanks with vd

        28. Thanks! What is the best college town in Romania? Not the capital, please it is probably more expensive than the smaller college towns. I like Lublin, Poland for example.

        30. Sibiu is one of the most important cultural cities of Romania and was the European Capital of Culture for the year 2007.

      1. Forget the vampires, it’s the women you need to worry about. While they suck better things than your blood they are far more dangerous

        1. now who is it we know who has had extensive experience of romanian women who suck blood and other things? It’s the twins you have to watch out for

      3. They have imported enough large stereo systems that I’d think that they’d have it under control by now.

    4. Looks like you are off and running on this article yourself! Write it! I’d love to read it

    6. Was there once on some mission (the Christian type) and can confirm. I just wish I had what it took at the time to take care of my colleagues who tried to cuck the quite uncuckable men over there. A shame. Especially considering that my colleagues were tendentially more on the masculine side of what my homecountry has to offer.
      But hey, the statement “same! same!” in broken english about marriage can leave you dumbfounded.

      1. Very few people (usually the rich ones) have lethal guns. There are very restrictive guns control laws here. But criminality is not that high, like it is in other european countries, fortunately.

        1. I called Government Troll Cheeki up until a few minutes ago. I used to call him something else, but I can’t recall what that was.

        2. He may look dumb but that’s just a disguise. He’s a mastermind in the ways of espionage

        3. Would yo believe this man has gone as far as tearing Wallace stickers off the bumpers of cars?

      2. У меня очень жаркое белье на 34 градуса Цельсия Capitalist dog!

      4. Anders Celsius was a Swedish astronomy/math genius. Please do not associate him with socialist shit.

  11. Of course, the elites profit from imported slave labor and the chaos in other countries. Then put the ill gotten gain in a safe place. However culturally nice the place may be, the high cost of living make it a place only for the wealthy. We do you think the elites have their conferences like Davos there? They can be close to their money.

    1. Wrong. Blue collar workers earn well. Even non-European taxi drivers make good money too.

  12. Sadly Switzerland’s neighbors are turning into “refugee” infested shitholes which will undoubtedly have a negative impact on them as well. Hopefully the Swiss will retain their homogeneousness and not succumb to multiculturalism.

  13. How is Switzerland ONLY 90% European?
    What is the other 10%???
    African, Asian?
    90% is pretty low for a small isolated landlocked nation in the middle of Europe.
    How about they strive for being 100% White? How about that?

  15. Can anyone cite any famous Swiss inventors, scientists, writers? I can’t. Yet there are tons of German, French, and Italian inventors, scientists, and writers. Weird …

    1. Its an elitist paradise. And the elites are generally not great inventors scientists or writers.

  16. Swiss defense is a joke: if any real country like Russia wanted to skull fuck them, they could. A bunch of Swiss men with alpine hats and rifles is going to stand up to ballistic missiles and stealth tech and nuclear weapons? Please

  17. Switzerland is amazing. Visited there and it is so clean it almost seems sterile and unnatural . The town of Basel looked like a Disney theme park i.e. “Swiss land” and again was shockingly clean. Went into a strip club and the bathroom was immaculate. You can set your watch by the trains arriving . They arrive to the minute. I had my back turned to the tracks talking with my friend and I turned around and was startled by the train. The giant many ton train arrived and I didn’t even hear it was so quiet. It is very hard to become a Swiss citizen. They require you to have cash $$ money in the bank
    ( i think it is 600 K) in order to be considered… Another contender for best country on Earth is Japan.

    3. sounds like Switzerland could use more blacks. Swiss time will be replaced with the cooler and more laid back “Black peoples’ time”

    4. I too am often startled by trains. Silent and stealthy, the iron horses stalk their prey, waiting to pounce.

    1. You talk to yourself a lot….. I suppose that’s better than talking to someone who isn’t there.

      1. I moved in with the strangest guy
        Can you believe he actually thinks that I am really alive

    1. Take a little trip, take a little trip
      Take a little trip and see
      Take a little trip, take a little trip
      Take a little trip with me

  21. OT: So I looked up George Soros like you guys suggested and damn that man is like a supervillain.

    1. He is like an combination of every Bond villain, ever.

      1. I was always wondering why you guys mentioned him when it comes to destroying the west and I see why. The man outright said that he sees himself as a God and he surely believes it. To top it off he has the power of money to exercise this belief and he has done it. Damn I can’t believed be devalued the pound. And now it seems that he has turned his attention to the U.S

        1. He’s responsible for fucking up the Balkans throughout the 1990s. His NGOs were installed in Serbia in 1989-1990.
          B92, a popular alternative rock station (the Serbs’ equivalent to the Australian Triple J), was founded with Soros money.
          There’s also a common rumour that he collaborated with the Nazis in the 1940s, although he was 9 years old when the war began and 15 when it ended, so I don’t know how true that is.

        3. It’s not a rumor. He openly admitted it on talk program back in 1998 called “60 mintues.” You can still find the clip on Youtube. Despite being a Hungarian Jew who collaborated, he admitted he had no regrets.

  22. “The United States, or Australia and New Zealand, are migrant societies and therefore they accommodate more readily those from other backgrounds than we do ourselves, who still nurse a sense of our homogeneity and difference from others.
    And that’s precisely what the European Union, in my view, should be doing its best to undermine.”
    A quote from Peter Sutherland…..UN representative for refugees. Where does he live? Gated community in Switzerland….. diversity for thee but not for me. Fat fuck…..

  24. old coworker wanted to move there- they said you had to prove you had roots in the country. other than being a refugee, how could you move there?

  26. how do you move here?? as long as Muslim numbers remain low terrorism can be prevented.

  27. Being from a protestant family, I know a couple of swiss missionaries. According to them, it is only a matter of time until Switzerland become as much degenerate as any other country in Europe.
    The only reason Switzerland isn’t that bad yet is because all the globalist’s money are on its banks. They need a stable country to be a stronghold for their money. That’s also why Switzerland claims neutrality in most global tensions between nations.
    I don’t know exacly if they are right or not, but since they are swiss themselves I have no reasons to doubt their word.

    1. From my observations visiting and passing through CH myself, I’de say they are correct.

  28. Reason 11: Swiss Neutrality. They are focused on protecting their own borders, not on protecting the borders of other countries. They don’t get involved in shit like Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan. They might be neutral but they also have a strong military heritage, are highly trained and well armed.

  30. You forgot Australia and New Zealand. Australia’s Muslim population is lower and the Asians there eclipse them.
    Also weather and outdoors. High living standards and geographic locations. Australia has been thriving economically as well.

      1. True but it has natural barriers and they are tough on immigration at least. The vast majority speak English there, you can’t say the same for large swaths of America and Europe.

    2. I have mentioned Australia in my article 8 ways to live an ethical life in the modern world. There is not a single country but a list of good countries, although Switzerland appears to be the best in total.

      1. Both are pretty good but Switzerland has a weak point. It’s Europe, Europe is changing in bad ways.

        2. No place is perfect but I think Australia NZ and Switzerland are all a big step up from the US EU and Canada.
          Switzerland is a more libertarian version of Germany.

    3. Australia has mass muslims, mosques, burquas etc, they are drrug thugs, and now nigger african home invadders

  31. I wonder how long will that last. I estimate by demographic change alone, in a few decades muslim controlled Germany, France, Italy and other neighboring countries will not tolerate Switzerland being what it is for a long time and will do all they can to “enrich” it with their by then new used-to-be-european weapons.

    1. That and you will see the same hypocrites flood Switzerland and then impose the same SJW bs.

  32. Yes. CH is definitely a beautiful cage painted in shining gold. Or in any colour you prefer to see… just ask anyone who has been living there long enough to realize what’s really going on: a subtle, almost imperceptible (because administered drop – by – drop) totalitarian control of all aspects of citizens’ lives. Hardly anything that would appeal to anyone who is not well past retirement age…

    1. The criticism is ridiculous and misguided. If one moves to Switzerland it should come with an understanding that it is more Christian and conservative than many other countries. Until the 1990s everything were closed on Sundays in Sweden as well. If people really value conservative lifestyles instead of hedonism then it should be no problem to not have access to restaurants, bars, shopping malls and supermarkets 24/7.
      As for price levels, yes they are high, but has to be calculated in relationship to income. With simple math skills one could figure out how much is left. Same problem in Singapore, Norway and Sweden.

      1. I am happy in Hungary wouldn’t trade it ever. The mentality of people in Hungary and Poland is far more conservative even if they are EU members.

  33. Incredible everything you can do with your country when you do welcome thousands and thousands of retarded muslims.

    1. Look what happened in Spain and their Muslim population is much smaller.

    1. If women would have been a crucial factor I would have emphasized that. Switzerland has no interesting citites, besides Zurich, but for more conservative people they can pick anything that suits their preferences. However, I mentioned beautiful sites, including Old Town in Zurich and Bodensee.

      1. Swiss women are ultra stuck up. Germany might have its issues but its not hard to connect with German women while Swiss will ask you straight up how much you earn.
        Also the Muslim population is rapidly growing whereas its tiny in Eastern Europe.9

        2. Switzerland is conservative by European standards. It’s not like flyover parts of the US. The Muslim population is growing fast.

        3. I would agree with your notion that Switzerland is an excellent country for one to live in with one of the best living standards on Earth, but there are many other fine places as well. That being said no place is a utopia, everyplace has its upsides and downsides.

    2. My experience is anecdotal but….
      Swiss women are … larger. Now, large depends on where you’re from. If you’re coming from the US/UK, you’re in for a pleasant surprise. If you’re from some of the thin zones in europe… well… not so much.
      🙂

  36. 1991 the last Canton allows women to vote.
    So the slow decline has started there too.

  37. I like Switzerland but it has three annoying deficiencies.
    *-VERY expensive. From housing to restaurants to getting some fondue. Everything costs a lot.
    *-Difficult to gain citizenship. Not impossible, but if you’re not wealthy from the onset, or are particularly frugal, might want to consider another country to run to.
    *-Women are heavier on average compared to other European countries. (Anecdotal however. Quite thin when compared to the US/UK.)
    One other thing I never hear mentioned is the lack of English. I remember my first trip there I was expecting a ton of English speakers. There were more Italian speakers so that’s what I ended up using for the remainder of that trip, as well as every trip since.

  39. While in the Air Force I was stationed in Northern Central Italy not too far from the Swiss border. On the weekends I drove up to Zermatt, Switzerland. What an amazing, city, no trash, no third world aholes starting shit, no gas cars were allowed. Nice, courteous, healthy people and very hot northern Italian women. Last I read, Switzerland had about $750 billion in excess!!! Awesome city!!!!
