I guess they don’t manufacture anything in Geneva, primarily a finance capital and service oriented economy.
25 bucks an hour would send the few manufacturing jobs they have left scurryng off to the third world

I am not sure where they manufacture all those Swiss watches, but @ $1000-25000/watch, they can afford $25/hour.

Not if they raise there import tariffs high enough. Which they should. In a modern manufacturing plant labor is not cost prohibitive no matter where it is done. Might as well raise tariffs and do as much manufacturing domestically and become self sufficient, or try to anyway.
