Water and electricity is cheap compared to other cost (location, wages). It is more profitable to have more customers per machine per day.

It will also use much more energy and water, because they're built to wash extremely quickly, efficiency be damned.

We will need a lot less oil in the future. Just one example: in my country the typical way to heat a house in winter was oil. We are now transitioning to heat pumps as fast as we possibly can. Another big consumer of oil are vehicles, which are also transitioning to electric. We will still import oil, of course, but much less. It's not unreasonable to cut out one or two supplier countries if the demand halves.

The US defense spending is different to ours in that it is economically useful. In short, it enforces the petrodollar, thus forcing everyone to buy dollars, thus everyone pays for their inflation.

proudly independent

As a Swiss let me just clarify this: only old stupid nationalist idiots delude themselves to believe this. In reality we are completely dependent on our neighbours and the EU. We are a tiny country with a surprisingly large economy, which is exactly as strong as the trade we can do with EU countries and the highly skilled EU workers we can attract.

Internationally yes but in Switzerland it's considered a large city, because it's the 3rd largest, after Zürich and Genève, but before Lausanne and Bern (the capital)

It's not you, it's the way the USA have decided to build their country
