If that's the case, this austerity wave is not about money.

There is something else . . . but I don't know what it is.

Switzerland can't be broke. Switzerland always has money thanks to its secretive banking system.

If Switzerland is short on money, then something more is going on than people worried about national budget deficits. This is some kind of economic battle.

This is not to be believed.
