Cultural relativism aside, I’m sure we can agree on “terrible” if we talk it out. I’m not asking for a “well X country is worse than Y country, so, Y country isn’t THAT bad”. I’d say for this discussion we can go as far back as 1800 for “past” as I’m currently convinced there isn’t a country with a perfect track record going back even that short a time.
Yikes. Switzerland is an absolutely capitalist hellhole. Not for their own citizens, yes, but for everyone else. Apart from maybe 1 or 2 island nations, it’s the number one spot to store illegal money and “investments”.
Switzerland implements the OECD standards for automatic tax information exchange with other nations, and has done so for a long time
So let’s say a Swiss bank has a literal ton of Nazi gold from 1940s. They would automatically inform other nations of that pile?
