We should not bully the Swiss. Obama said "we will have a new public image with foreign countries. "We will listen and learn and not dictate our policies to other countries" (paraphrasing) A typical politicians lies. I am sure he meant that statement with countries who might slap us back, like North Korea,etc.<br />If the Swiss had the "bomb" the US would not be demanding anything from them. But as the Swiss cannot fight back, we will roll them over with our power.<br />If the Swiss demanded we turn over the names of Swiss citizens to their country that have accounts in our banks, we would laugh at them. It would be against out "privacy laws".<br />We need the low tax countries to keep tax competition alive, Without tax competition, governments all over the world, including the US can raise taxes with no recourse. you must go to www.cato.orgtomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08790221841535982270noreply@blogger.com
