  The Wikipedia article states the US govt waives their sovereign immunity for most issues.

    They may voluntarily do so, but they are not compelled to do so. That's a seriously big issue and a common way for tyranny to get a foothold - going against convention and tradition because they aren't legally binding while hiding in a technicality of the law. If the US government doesn't generally need sovereign immunity then it should be forced to surrender the right to exercise it or it'll be used in the worst way the first way.

      Every democracy has given up nearly all their sovereign immunity with a few exceptions. I guess they could reverse that decision.
