From the Middlebury Institute's REGISTRY OF NORTH AMERICAN SEPARATIST ORGANIZATIONS The Swiss Confederation Institute Switzerland is the most prosperous, freedom-oriented nation in the world and it is a true decentralized confederation as was the United States under the Articles of Confederation. We believe the very successful Swiss model of confederation government, citizen direct democracy & the devolution of power & programs to state & local jurisdictions best limits government power, special interest and bureaucratic control over free citizens. America, other nations & investors can learn much about the benefits of a peaceful foreign policy, strong defense, a strong currency, financial confidentiality, asset protection & investment safety from the Swiss model of government, their financial industry & respect for minorities. We believe that the direct democracy aspects of referendum and initiative will serve to protect citizen rights and limit special interest control of the political process when added to the present institutions of representative government as it does in Switzerland.
