So US law is now the law of the World. I thought the Court of Criminal Justice in the Hague was a bit high-handed, but this is even more amazing.

It makes sense to me that US citizens banking in Swiss banks and not paying taxes are breaking US law. So prosecute them. But prosecute Swiss people for breaking US Laws? What if Spain made a law against Death Penalty. Could they put warrents out for US juries or Governors who are instituting it.

I’m not sure why the Swiss capitulated in this case. How did the IRS get leverage on them?

What amazes me is the huge amount of untaxed black market money moving around all of us via illegal labor and it attracts no IRS interest. Not low-hanging fruit, I guess.

It’s the Catholic Church warring against the Knights Template again. No disrespect to Catholics or the church.
