On Wednesday, the Federal councillors of Switzerland showed a way out of the pandemic: the Lockdown until the 26. April followed, there is a gradual loosening. A Ray Of Light!
Zap duster, however, it looks for the economy. “We have to adapt to a deep crisis, which takes a long time,” says the competent Federal councillor Guy Parmelin (60). It is based on two scenarios of the state Secretariat Seco. Both are not very hopeful.
In the best case, it has trapped the economy in the second half of the year, 2020 – at least to some extent. However, even as the GDP (the value of all produced in the country goods) is projected to shrink by 7 percent; unemployment rises to 4 percent.
In the worse case, a countless number of Corporate bankruptcies before us; mass redundancies will follow, with GDP shrinking by 10 percent; unemployment rises to 7 percent – a rate we know so far only from the EU!
Which of the two model calculations is indeed the case, depends on how quickly the pandemic is contained. Therefore, according to Minister of economy Parmelin: “wash your hands, keep your distance, during Easter, stay home!”
That it is up to all of us, is certainly right. However, each Individual can do more to stop the crash. The most effective way: to spend money!
7 percent unemployment means that 93 percent of work – and thus pay. If the majority of the workers in hoards now, but their Savings out of fear of the Future, we are in a downward spiral. Each gives only the most necessary of All, the shops remain on your goods. More people lose their Job. The uncertainty is increasing. The consumption is declining. And back. And back …
Therefore, now all who can afford it should go, more shopping, again something Nice to make, investments to boost the economy is stronger than any government stimulus program.

Who could spend due to Corona for a week anywhere of money, it is allowed to treat yourself now quiet something! Anyone who works in a home office, saves, Yes, because cooking at home is cheaper. And who was hit by the Corona-crisis, will be grateful to you if you want to ensure that it ends as quickly as possible.
If all believe that it is bad, then it is also very bad. If everyone is doing what they can, the economy is again in drive, then she comes back in journey. From this crisis, we only come out all together.
How quickly we can do this, is up to each Individual!
