No no no no you got it all wrong bud. The Arab Spring was obviously staged by Western capitalist zionist nations, this is common knowledge.

It's not "external" regulation by a foreign government, that's not what the EU is and Switzerland isn't even a member.

Considering how many many members of its are in NATO, the EU is known for its military prowess. The Swiss just cheated and took the high ground on the map. They are literately surrounded by mountains, and the only way in are narrow passes that are incredibly easy to bottleneck. I remember a hearing a story about how shortly before World War One, a German general was attention military exercises in Switzerland, and he was be told that the Swiss could have one million men in this spot in 24 hours. U[on hearing this the German General asked the Swiss General what he would do if he brought 5 million men to this spot tomorrow. The Swiss General replied by saying his men would fire five shots each and go home. You don't fuck with Switzerland.

I wasn't referring to supranational regulation, "external" regulation as in regulation regarding external factors (e.g. immigration, etc.)

Monaco doesn't even need restrictions, the workers can't even afford to live there, they have to commute from France.

No no. These were the ones supplying said dictatorships with SAM systems to keep those pesky Western capitalists at bay trying to enforce their zionist no-fly zones!

Not to mention carrying money physically across the border is so 1980's. Just head to the local Swiss bank branch and deposit 9999.99 at a time into your Swiss account and the problem is solved.


You really have no idea of how often the Swiss and Italian border guards catch people trying to smuggle cash and commodities through the border at Chiasso.

Two interesting facts:

2.The EU doesn't dictate anything about immigration laws. People moving from, let's say, Spain to Lithuania are immigrants exactly as much as people moving from California to New York are.

Anyway, good luck going from Switzerland to Britain without crossing EU territory, internal waters, or airspace.

It'll make it harder for tax evaders to get away with their crimes along with stopping other criminals like Polanski, but it's going to hurt the Swiss economy in the short term for sure. It'd be better if Switzerland would work to catch and extradite tax evaders and other criminals though, borders are the dumbest solution to problems like this and most likely the most costly. Neutrality is good but there is such a thing as taking a gimmick too far.
