Are the Swiss prepared to lay siege to your own land? Are you prepared to live on chocolate, bread, cheese and milk? The EU will not come to an end simply because Switzerland blocks transport, but Switzerland might.

And when they are offered a 80,000CHF job in the city, or a 40,000CHF job in the boondocks, will they feel the same?

	So that's OK for a Swiss immigrant to say in Canada but not for an immigrant in Switzerland?

Now who mentioned Hinterwäldler...

Awfully sorry, I pulled the same lever twice.

after 122 pages, I apologize if somebody already posted this, but it seems the thread could use a dose of humor. apologies that it is only in German, I promise that it is indeed really funny.

How does this work?

Like most people I know, they will work wherever, and continue to live in the boondocks.

	The traffic over the past ten years has become absurd, all due to the large number of frontaliers. My daughter found it a better idea to move to tha US, rather than look for a job in TI, as they are all being taken by frontaliers who are willing to work for far less. Need I continue? Tom

I thought your daughter was in the USA? And living in the country?

One is, the other moved from the boonies of TI (Vallemaggia) to the boonies of BE (she lives in an old mill next to a farm or three).

And my thirty year old niece and her husband quit NYC to move to Tennessee to raise goats a couple years ago.

It amazes me how you see things form a totally Swiss perspective, even from across the big pond. I think most of the Germans, see it as you so crudely put it, and they can take their wares elsewhere.

What the Swiss don't think about is the damage that this has done. Do they believe that those in the EU will ever have confidence in investing in Switzerland again with the hindsight that they can get kicked out at a moment's notice and told FU you're out.

So one of your daughters has actually left Switzerland, to find a job somewhere else?

And you would deny other people that right?

And to live and to eat.

A lot of people around here even head home from the city for lunch.

Back to the dark ages burning sheep fat for light and raclette on the fire?

"The EU has stopped talks with Switzerland on a cross-border electricity agreement which had been aimed at closer power trading ties with the country."
