Dats like saying America is all about hamburger and Disneyland and Jamaica is only about Bob Marley and Bolt. LoL
The point about Switzerland is that it is relatively small and dem work out nuff problems on their own. Imagine French/German and Italian living under one overarching order. Dat nuh easy but dem mek it wuk.
The Cabinet is always a coalition and they use what is called a magic formula to work out the allocation. Overall Switz uses a sort of proportional representation and the Parliament votes in the cabinet via a consensus approach. The Cabinet for the most part does NOT come from Parliament, but from the Cantons generally and could even be straight from civil society. There are only 7 people in the Cabinet and generally they mostly all seem to serve 2 terms...
Most Swiss politicians are NOT paid, but receive a per diem, the Federal cabinet, Cantonal cabinets and large city admins are the exception. They do get paid.
The just past president lives 2 address numbers away but in the same buidling complex. I have never seen her (mostly in Bern) but I see the husband all the time in the Govt car in the garage but never saw any security around them...strange as she was Foreign Minister as well as twice rotating president...
There you have it!Comment
