Does America Still Know Rule Of Law -- Nationally, Internationally, Or At All? (Swiss Tax "Deal" With US)

``why is Switzerland even considering this so-called "deal"? The reason is very simple: America is simply not playing by the rules. Just as was the case in the situation with the Swiss private bank, Wegelin, they are threatening to block US dollar transactions. No bank can afford to not be able to transact in US dollars or to invest in the US markets. The US Dept. of Justice is using this as leverage and a threat to destroy several leading Swiss banks -- whether the allegations against the banks are legally justified or not.''
