No.
I don’t know why rtl does these meaningless surveys
No, it wouldn’t. We have two main issues that I think need to be tackled: (a) We need to diversify our economy as we have a lot of local brain drain. Not every Luxembourgish person that has ambitions wants to work in the financial sector, hence many choose to work in Germany, Switzerland or other more diversified economies. We will never be able to compete with those countries in terms of industry and innovation but we should at least incentivise talent to come back after their studies and create value here. Not everyone will but we should at least try. We should focus on niches and make it easier for people to create businesses.
(b) The State (as much as I like a well organised state with good services) needs to become more efficient and for the love of God needs to stop its unfair competition with the private sector. So many engineers decide to go to the state after one or two years in the private sector. That’s freaking unhealthy for an economy.
Why wouldn’t this be sustainable? Demographics are on the decline so without immigration we can’t keep the population level, therefore we’ll always host a significant share of people of foreign nationality. On the cross border workforce, they live right next to their workplace and are just separated by an imagined line on a map.
All characteristics that would make this unsustainable are inherent to our capitalist economy demanding unending growth from finite resources.
