    Ah, great, so back to the roots in Switzerland, or what?

    That really reminds me of that famous—or rather infamous—quote by Swiss Federal Councilor Eduard von Steiger during the Nazi era:

    Das Boot ist voll

    (The boat is full)

    Eduard von Steiger (1942) Source

    Only privileged assholes could come up with something like that…

        Yea, this quote makes it quite clear how little compassion even the most affluent people are willing to show toward their fellow human beings, even when they are in dire need. Apparently, their cold-heartedness and selfishness haven’t changed one bit.
