On 3 March, the folks in CH will vote on a decision to join the United 
Nations or not to do this.

Basically, the far right thinkers are against this while the middle and 
liberals are for it. There is a lot of psychological pressure and fear 
tactics being used to vote this down. Were it up to me, and I had a 
chance to vote on this issue, I don't know what I would do.

A recent advertisement cautions the Swiss that they will be paying 
millions of CHF to the "big powers" and getting no real say in how it is 
spent. They say that the big politicians and the parliament want in the 
UN so that the common man will no longer have a say in CH. The ad says 
they want nice paying jobs in the "glass palace" in New York, where they 
can have inordinate power and privilege, and let the Swiss people 
continue to pay millions each year.

I wonder what will happen?
