Americans go on voting for more of the same, with Ron Paul and actual freedom being relegated to a curiosity. It has been an interesting few decades watching the process develop. The USA Empire is akin to the Roman Empire with legions heading off into the hinterlands of empire in all directions to expand and secure the perimeter, destroying anyone who stands in the way, or offers opposition. It is absurd that people in Switzerland have to know about let alone comply with USA laws. The USA does not own the world. If the USA wants to force Americans to pay taxes, that's up to them and their citizens. To force Swiss people to come within the American tax system is nuts.
