Switzerland is one of the few countries where this graph hasn’t strayed. I wonder if it is because how strong apprenticeship and manual jobs are valued in our culture?

Germany has a pretty similar apprenticeship system to Switzerland, but a massive gap.

Maybe the salary increases of the boses of the companies registered in our tax haven cantons are artificially closing the gap.
