I like the Swiss system. People can actually move their neighborhood to a different canton or create a new one if the one they don't like how things are run in

I like the Swiss system. People can actually move their neighborhood to a different canton or create a new one if the one they don't like how things are run in the canton they are in. And it rarely happens, simply because it can.
And the people must approve many measures and certainly those changing the constitution of the country. They have referendums all the time and also proportional representation, which aligns the legislature with the voters.
Of course, this means Switzerland minds it own business and won't invade other countries, but I guess that's the downside of government not driven by anti-competitive urges.
The downvotes are ok. There seems to be an element here that doesn't like it when you state the obvious, but most are rational though.
