1. Climate Change: Switzerland has more to lose due to Climate Change than most countries, and should do more than most countries to fight it, including by shifting taxes away from hard-earned wealth and income to the fight against climate-change-inducing emissions in order to protect the tourism industry.

2. Banking Secrecy: The famous Swiss banking system has been abused by foreigners, but has also saved foreigners (it’s been forgotten that the first Swiss banking laws were enacted in 1934 to protect assets from the Nazis), and, in the interests of freedom everywhere, a balance needs to be reached. In this era of resurgent totalitarianism around the world, it’s more important than ever that those fleeing unjust regimes be able to hide their assets from thugs who happen to be running entire countries.

3. Immigration: Swiss voters concerned about rising levels of irregular immigration could stick it to the EU by voting on the national referendum outlined below to leave the EU and join the US, thus (on the remote possibility that Germany and the United States would vote the same way and therefore that this would happen any time soon) forming a hard and secure border around a famous Alpine redoubt.

4. National Referendum on joining the United States: This Unitist proposal is a long shot for now, but one of the nation’s future referenda should be on the question of joining the United States (but only if neighboring Germany does so as well; US membership would only work with access to the sea).

- Does the Unity Party plan to participate in Swiss elections in the future? Absolutely
- Or is it mainly a financial maneuver? Absolutely not. After exhaustive research, Switzerland has been revealed as one nation with liberal campaign finance regulation, including allowing non-Swiss to donate (perhaps in part as a means of giving voice to those who have a legitimate interest in maintaining/restoring financial freedom + privacy). At least initially, this will be a factor.
- Do you already have members in Switzerland? A single web page just went live less than four hours ago as a means of "putting it out there," so we'll see what the future holds.
- What does the launch have to do with the current elections in the USA? The United States is on the cusp of one of two outcomes: 1) Trump wins outright; or 2) Harris wins, but Trump supporters descend upon up to 50 US state capitals come December 17th, with slates of fake electors ready to (violently, if necessary) "vote" in Donald Trump in states in reality won by Harris. Think Jan. 6th x 7-50 + a second fake electors scheme, this one on steroids. One situation on the horizon that apparently hasn't been considered by anyone in the American media: a certain Kamala Harris, as Vice President of the United States, and therefore President of the US Senate, will be the one to count the Electoral College ballots before a joint session of Congress on January 6, 2025. This duty was, until 1/6/21, always a formality, and Al Gore, as Vice President in 2001, famously made his own heartbreaking defeat official, but no doubt Trump supporters will seize on that coincidence as an excuse to storm the Capitol yet again (assuming that American democracy makes it that far this time). Connection with Switzerland usw: Trump has already promised to go after his enemies, and any American who has taken any action against Trump (including the mere utterance of unkind words) shouldn't wait around to see how far down he'll drill; Switzerland can be a haven, and almost by definition anyone who will flee a Trump America will be a freedom-loving American, not to mention most likely young, mobile, and tech-savvy.
- And why do you think Switzerland should give up its independence and join the USA? No one needs to give up anything, because independence in the Age of Globalization is an illusion; the reality is that Climate Change, the ratcheting up of nuclear threats, etc. are demonstrating what's been becoming more true every year for nearly 80 years now: the world is interconnected, these connections are just as dangerous as they are beneficial, the fate of the world rests in the hands of the United States, and the citizens of the world deserve a say in their fate.

The Unity Party of Switzerland does not currently have representation in Bern (while the Unity Party of America has been well-established for years, our Swiss branch is just getting started with this webpage). That’s actually good news as we launch fundraising, since, per Swiss law and above + below, only parties represented in the Swiss Parliament are required to deal with the onerous paperwork involved, and even then only regarding donations above 15,000 Swiss francs (approximately $17,000 as of 2024).

To the point for the Unity Party of Switzerland’s international friends: non-Swiss are allowed to donate up to CHF 15,000 to UPS, so contact us to donate today!
