I think NetHorse's Socialism comment was referring to the fact that Switzerland is a Federal republic which ensures the availability of social security, health care, housing and general monetary benefits to its citizens. So much so that its apart of the Swiss Federal Constitution under Fundamental Rights, Civil Rights and Social Goals as a county.
In simpleton speak its a socialized government, its been this way since 1874 and surprised more people here didn't know that. Austria, Finland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Holland, Iceland, Greenland are also socialized government's but not all of those Federal Constitutions ensure those same rights as Switzerland.
