About $25 per 41 hour work week. Can you say worthless money.
Update. The story says Geneva has 200k workers who commute from France. Open borders.

Why?

It’s less likely to fail there then say the Sudan or the United States. Like others have said though, just wait until a double cheeseburger costs $25.

Eh, it's Switzerland. If they can manage that, great.

A nation must not spend money on its own people! It makes me so angry.

They should spend trillions on foreign aid, overseas wars and facilitating immigration to undercut the wellbeing of their own people in support of global corporations like us.

A cheeseburger in Switzerland is $35

If everyone makes 53k then inflation occurs as employers have to offset the additional payroll costs

Because you don't understand the value of a dollar.

Switzerland is one of the most expensive places on earth to live. My friend actually went to the Swiss Alps with his wife for a vacation and he said everything was 3 times the price you would expect.
He and his wife got value meals at Burger King at the airport and it was $35. For two combos at Burger King at the airport.
