Between $2 and $200 billion? Solid financial planning.
To: Citizen Zed
I’m sure the Greeks will get right on that and bring their money home. That would be like expecting Democrats to stop engaging in election fraud.

Between $2 and $200 billion? Solid financial planning. That is what got Greece there in the first place. And made Social Security so financially solid as well.
Socialists don't do real numbers very well.

Greece needs to kick their tax slaves to start working harder.

Swiss banks, which have been trying to shake off their image as havens for those seeking to avoid the tax collector. Laughable statement. They are being forced to do so by the EU and the US.

Just a 21% tax, maybe a 30% “haircut,” more taxes when you spend it and the remaining wiped out by higher prices. Sounds great.

The Greeks are a lot more generous than the US government is.
THe US Government wants to control the wealth of all US citizens with onerous reporting requirements and gotcha penalties. We have defacto capital controls rather than explicit ones, both on individuals and corporations. We’re also unique in having worldwide taxation on income.
That said, a Greek citizen would have to be crazy to bring his money back from Switzerland. Where’s he going to put it—in the Greek banking system, where he’d have to worry about a “bail-in?”

21% to make the money squirreled away in Switzerland “legimate”? I’ve got another idea - leave Greece and - voila - the money’s now legit and without losing one fifth to a bunch of thieves.

Any Greek who brings their money back from Switzerland is a damn fool.
