In Switzerland about 90% of people submit their votes by mail.

I'm a researcher and i would gladly send anyone a paper who asks, without a reason needed. Although all my papers are open access anyways so shrugs. Btw it's also not unusual that people may just ask some questions related to ones paper via email and im always happy to answer those. I believe that most researchers are always glad to share their expertise and findings (as long as it isn't a huge effort ofc).

If you're not dependent on your parents, think about cutting them out of your life or at least strongly reducing contact. Trust me, mich less stress this way, choose people who are good to you to keep around.

They didn't write communism, they wrote tankies. And while I won't equate tankies to nazis, they do share a lot of ideology, such as their love of strongmen.

After reading that article, this feels like an insult to bed bugs.

Anyone who knows Von Leyens carrer should know it will go more like this:

Von Leyen: "How much will you pay me and my family to do that?"

Musk: "X amount"

Von Leyen: "Consider it done."

Von Leyens picture should be in the wikipedia entry for "failing upwards"

tbf a big reason for our high share of non-citizens is just that citizenship is much harder to acquire than in most other places

Sorry but you're exaggerating, a full meal including drinks in a mid-level establishment will be at max. 50 chf and that's being generous. And with cheaper places you can even stay below 20 chf.

Yes, Switzerland is expensive but there's no need to lie about it. Also the stuff about millionaires and all maybe fits a couple streets in Switzerland that are very touristy but there are plenty of places not at all like this.

In Switzerland we pretty much lack professional healthcare staff all the time (like half our doctors are from Germany it feels). I'm not working in the industry but afaik nursing is better paid than in Germany, just other conditions around the job are very stressful and make many people leave.

During Covid, things got bad enough that a popular initiative by the trade unions got passed which demanded augmentations to the working conditions. The concrete improvements will soon get voted on and hopefully quickly implemented.

If you already speak German fluently, learning to understand Swiss German will hopefully not be too much of a challenge to you.

Update: I looked it up and a professional nurse makes on average a bit more than median income here.
