In an attempt to obtain protected banking information pertaining to 4500 Americans, the Obama tax police are threatening the collapse of one of the world's major banks and more ruin and economic misery in Switzerland and the United States. If American money is being driven overseas by fascistic socialists in Washington, one wonders how many job-creating, freedom-loving entrepreneurs are also becoming refugees.
Switzerland's justice minister warned in an interview on Sunday that top bank UBS could collapse if sensitive talks with the United States over a high-profile tax fraud investigation fall through.
"The actions of UBS in the United States are very problematic. Not just because they are punishable but also because they threaten all of the bank's activities,'' Eveline Widmer-Schlumpf told Le Matin Dimanche newspaper.
"The Swiss economy and the job market would suffer on a major scale if UBS fails as a result of its licence being revoked in the United States,'' she said.
Switzerland and the United States have negotiated an agreement under which UBS would hand over information on some 4,500 account holders to US tax police.
But a Swiss court ruling earlier this month put the deal in doubt.
Many in Switzerland, where banking secrecy is a source of pride and a key part of the economy, have accused the government of failing to protect UBS.
"We have nothing to blame ourselves for. I don't think anyone could prove that we acted badly,'' Widmer-Schlumpf said in the interview.

obama is threatening overseas bamks with "trouble" in order to allow his machine to work the system and make deposits into the overseas banks, from the US government accounts, to private accounts, which will be redirected and collected elsewhere in the future, by him and his conspirators. He will then become a trillionaire with no visible source of income.
