Compared with USOA (if DOGE has an „O“, US of A also gets one):

• Banking and Asset Protection – Swiss banking laws offer strong financial privacy, with asset protection structures that provide more confidentiality than U.S. regulations, which enforce greater financial disclosure. I have friends who have to pay US-taxes even if the lived their whole life here, poor dogs.

• Property and Home Privacy – Authorities in Switzerland require clear legal justification and court approval for home searches, whereas U.S. law allows for broader law enforcement access under doctrines like “probable cause.”

• Surveillance and Public Space Privacy – Switzerland has stricter regulations on public and private surveillance, limiting government and corporate monitoring, whereas the U.S. permits more widespread surveillance with fewer legal barriers.

• etc.

Every time an US-American starts bragging about their “great American democracy,” I get secondhand embarrassment and think, if only they knew… They should take a closer look at Switzerland or the Scandinavian countries and ideally, visit them.
