As far as I know, once you're a permanent resident (or citizen for
that
matter), you pay American taxes on your worldwide income, no matter
where you
live.
If you decide to go back to Switzerland, you'll pay the higher of the
two tax
rates (which most likely is the American one). I don't know how the
state taxes
work, I assume, you'll pay federal taxes only.
Google for it, I'm sure there is lots of information on the INS web
site.
