Swiss Banks Will Resist EU Pressure To Reform
Contrarian Profits (October 30th, 2008) Writes:
Swiss banks are being targeted by EU officials desperate to blame someone for this financial crisis. But Bob Bauman says the country is strong enough to resist external calls to reform its bank secrecy and tax laws.
This from The Sovereign Society:
Last week, tax-hungry officials from the increasingly socialist countries of Germany and France declared another round in their long running war on Switzerland.
Their aim once again was against traditional Swiss bank secrecy, which the Franco-German politicians claim is little more than a cover for massive tax evasion. As usual, they didn’t offer any proof for this claim.
Over several centuries and during two World Wars, peaceful Switzerland always has maintained its traditional neutrality. It’s kept out of numerous wars involving both France and Germany, usually with the latter attacking the former.
The last time a war of sorts
