this report came out in may. considering that many wealthy taxphobic americans are talking emigration, it is interesting to note that every one of these cities enjoys UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE, has what jwhop would call a socialist government...and that not one american city even made the top 30... ... International companies watch the Mercer study closely to help determine not just where to set up shop, but how much they should compensate relocating employees whose quality of life may be diminished by a move. For that reason the report ranks many cities in developing countries, where business is increasingly being done but the nuances of lifestyle may remain a mystery http://www.forbes.com/2010/05/25/worlds-best-cities-lifestyle-real-estate-mercer-vienna-geneva.html IP: Logged |
