Swiss here:

The government is indeed quite minimalistic and decentralized. It is led by the Federal Council, a seven-member executive body that makes collective decisions rather than being dominated by a single leader. This structure reflects Switzerland’s federal system, where the 26 cantons have significant autonomy.

Switzerland also has a bicameral parliament, consisting of the National Council (representing the population) and the Council of States (representing the cantons). Both chambers play a crucial role in legislation and oversight.

A key feature of Swiss democracy is direct democracy, where citizens regularly vote in referendums and initiatives on laws and constitutional changes. Additionally, national elections are held to elect members of parliament, shaping the political landscape. This system requires active participation but ensures that political power remains widely distributed.

Another key aspect is the militia system, which applies not only to the military but also to politics. Many politicians, especially at the local and cantonal levels, serve part-time while maintaining regular jobs. This fosters a close connection between political decision-makers and everyday citizens, reinforcing Switzerland’s decentralized and participatory governance.

This is vastly closer to America’s original design than today’s USA is.

The right people hate him, and their distress is hilarious for about two minutes. Beyond that the whole phenomenon is a waste of time. He’s a media gadfly with something to sell.

When you mentioned your upcoming family role, I was tempted to point out that the littlest petrolhead is going to need some cousins. Held back because the timing is your business. Do drop in from time to time. Hey wait, this is not imminent is it?

I’d argue with this but I guess I’m part of “everything” at the moment nostr:note1qucf2fzphpmf6fnd0t7cljmvdmx5wpv4976z84ypes3js024y40svhglgk
