Welfare state & family
Raise the retirement age to 67
Do you support an increase in the retirement age (e.g., to 67)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Health insurance premiums
Should the federal government allocate more funding for health insurance premium subsidies?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Pensions for married couples
For married couples, the pension is currently limited to 150% of the maximum individual AHV pension (capping). Should this limit be eliminated?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Reduce LPP pensions
As part of the reform of the BVG (occupational pension plan), pensions are to be reduced (lowering the minimum conversion rate from 6.8% to 6%). Are you in favor of this measure?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
In the future, even low-income earners will have to insure part of their already far too low wages. At the same time, the reform will result in a pension loss for everyone due to the reduction in the conversion rate. The planned compensation payments compensate for this only minimally. This proposal has nothing to do with an improvement of women's pensions, which was promised after AHV21.
Auch Geringverdienende müssen künftig einen Teil ihres ohnehin viel zu tiefen Lohnes versichern. Parallel dazu hat die Reform durch die Absenkung des Umwandlungssatzes einen Rentenverlust für alle zur Folge. Die vorgesehenen Ausgleichszahlungen gleichen diesen nur minimal aus. Mit einer Verbesserung von Frauenrenten, die nach der AHV21 versprochen wurde, hat diese Vorlage nichts zu tun.
Extend parental leave
Should paid parental leave be increased beyond today's 14 weeks of maternity leave and two weeks of paternity leave? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Further encourage the construction of social housing
Should the federal government provide more financial support for public housing construction? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Health
Introduce compulsory vaccination for children
Should compulsory vaccination of children be introduced based on the Swiss vaccination plan?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Introduce a tax on sugary foods
Are you in favor of the introduction of a tax on foods containing sugar (sugar tax)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Contribution to healthcare costs
Should insured persons contribute more to health care costs (e.g., increase the minimum deductible)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Limit the powers of the Federal Council in the event of a pandemic
Should the Federal Council's ability to restrict private and economic life in the event of a pandemic be more limited?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Federal competence for national hospital planning
Should the federal government be given the authority to determine the hospital offering (national hospital planning with regard to locations and range of services)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Education
Inclusive schooling
According to the Swiss integrated schooling concept, children with learning difficulties or disabilities should be taught in regular classes. Do you approve of this concept?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Tighten the requirements for obtaining a high school diploma
Should the federal government raise the requirements for the gymnasiale matura?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Instead of increasing the requirements for the baccalaureate degree, the focus should be on equal opportunities for such a degree.
Statt die Anforderungen an die Maturität zu erhöhen, soll der Fokus auf gleiche Chancen für einen solchen Abschluss gelegt werden.
Equal opportunities in education
Should the state be more committed to equal educational opportunities (e.g., through subsidized remedial courses for students from low-income families)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Immigration & integration
Make naturalization requirements more flexible
Should the conditions for naturalization be relaxed (e.g., shorter residence period)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Increase the quota of third-country nationals for skilled workers
Should more qualified workers from non-EU/EFTA countries be allowed to work in Switzerland (increase third-country quota)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Asylum procedures outside Europe
Do you support efforts to house asylum seekers in centers outside Europe during the asylum procedure?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Further camps like the one in Moria, where tens of thousands of people are at the mercy of the weather in inhumane conditions, must be fought at all costs. The external border procedures will result in tens of thousands of people being detained for weeks and months. Even children who should actually be going to school will be detained in this way. It must go without saying that traumatized refugees, whether children or not, should not be treated in this way.
Weitere Lager wie in Moria, wo zehntausende Menschen unter unmenschlichen Bedingungen den Witterungen ausgeliefert sind, gilt auf jeden Fall zu bekämpfen. Die Aussengrenzverfahren werden zur Folge haben, dass zehntausende Menschen über Wochen und Monate festgehalten werden. Auch Kinder, die eigentlich zur Schule gehen sollten, kommen so in Haft. Das man so nicht mit traumatisierten geflüchteten Menschen umgeht, egal ob Kinder oder nicht, muss selbstverständlich sein.
Voting rights for foreigners
Should foreign nationals who have lived in Switzerland for at least ten years be granted the right to vote and stand for election at the municipal level?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Foreigners represent more than 1.6 million people living in Switzerland. This is 20% of the population, who pay taxes according to the Swiss Federal Constitution, but are excluded from the right to vote. In times of climate crisis, strengthening the democratic base is crucial.
Ausländer*innen repräsentieren mehr als 1.6 Millionen Menschen, die in der Schweiz leben. Das sind 20% der Population, welche nach der Schweizer Bundesverfassung zwar Steuern bezahlen, aber vom Wahl- und Stimmrecht ausgeschlossen sind. In Zeiten der Klimakrise ist die Stärkung der demokratischen Basis von entscheidender Bedeutung.
Society & ethics
Legalize cannabis use
Should cannabis use be legalized? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The legalization of the cultivation, trade and consumption of cannabis for adults with measures for the protection of children and adolescents, with state-controlled cultivation and distribution should be pursued. To prevent addictive behavior, more resources are needed for prevention and a ban on advertising for cannabis (as well as for tobacco, alcohol and gambling).
Die Legalisierung des Anbaus, Handels und Konsums von Cannabis für Volljährige mit Massnahmen zum Schutz von Kindern und Jugendlichen, mit staatlich kontrolliertem Anbau und Vertrieb soll angestrebt werden. Um Suchtverhalten zu verhindern, braucht es mehr Mittel für Prävention und ein Werbeverbot für Cannabis (wie auch für Tabak, Alkohol und Glücksspiele).
Authorize active euthanasia
Would you be in favour of doctors being allowed to administer direct active euthanasia in Switzerland?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
By means of a systematic and carefully examined procedure, the actual will of the patient should be determined in advance by an independent committee. If it is determined that the will of the person (e.g. through a living will) explicitly requires direct active euthanasia, doctors should be allowed to carry this out without penalty.
Durch ein systematisches und sorgfältig geprüftes Verfahren soll der tatsächliche Wille der Patient*innen vorgängig durch ein unabhängiges Gremium ermittelt werden. Wird festgestellt, das der Wille der Person (bspw. durch Patientenverfügung) expliziet eine direkte aktive Sterbehilfe hergibt, soll es den Ärzt*innen erlaubt sein, diese straffrei durchzuführen.
Introdurre un terzo sesso ufficiale
Should a third official gender be introduced alongside "female" and "male"?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
As long as the official gender entry exists, non-binary people must be recognized by a third gender entry.
Solange es den amtlichen Geschlechtseintrag gibt, müssen non-binäre Menschen durch einen dritten Geschlechtseintrag anerkannt werden.
Equality between same-sex and heterosexual couples
Do you think it's right for same-sex couples to have the same rights as heterosexual couples in all areas?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Finances & taxes
Reduce taxes at the federal level
Do you support tax cuts at the federal level over the next four years?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Tax cuts often result in those who already have higher incomes benefiting more, while those with lower incomes receive less relief. This can increase income inequality in society.
Steuersenkungen führen oft dazu, dass diejenigen, die bereits höhere Einkommen haben, stärker von den Vorteilen profitieren, während diejenigen mit niedrigeren Einkommen weniger entlastet werden. Dies kann die Einkommensungleichheit in der Gesellschaft verstärken.
Tax married couples individually
Should married couples be taxed separately (individual taxation)? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Introduce a national inheritance tax
Would you support the introduction of a national inheritance tax on all inheritances over one million Swiss francs? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Inheritance tax can provide greater financial support for social welfare systems or finance the management of upcoming crises, such as the climate crisis (see Future Initiative).
Die Erbschaftssteuer kann eine stärkere finanzielle Unterstützung der Sozialwerke ermöglichen oder die Bewältigung anstehender Krisen finanzieren, wie zum Beispiel der Klimakrise (siehe Zukunftsinitiative).
Strengthen financial equalization between the cantons
Should the differences between cantons with high and low financial capacity be further reduced through fiscal equalization?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Economy & labour
Introduce a national minimum wage of CHF 4,000
Are you in favor of introducing a minimum wage of CHF 4,000 for all full-time employees?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Regulate the financial sector more strictly
Do you support stricter regulations for the financial sector (e.g., stricter capital requirements for banks, ban on bonuses)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Liberalizzare completamente il mercato dell'elettricità
Should private households be free to choose their electricity supplier (complete liberalization of the electricity market)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Make housing construction regulations more flexible
Should housing construction regulations be relaxed (e.g., noise protection, occupancy rates)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Wage equality between women and men
Are you in favor of stricter controls on equal pay for women and men?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Energy & transport
Restructure heavily trafficked sections of the highway
Should busy sections of highways be widened?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
We must ensure that in the age of the climate crisis, traffic is reduced and not expanded, because paradoxically, the expansion of highways leads to an increase in traffic. The solution to overcrowded roads is to expand public transport and reduce ticket costs.
Wir müssen dafür sorgen, dass im Zeitalter der Klimakrise der Verkehr verringert wird und nicht ausgebaut wird, da paradoxerweise der Ausbau von Autobahnen zu einer Zunahme des Verkehrs führt. Die Lösung für überfüllte Strassen ist der Ausbau der öffentlichen Verkehrs und die Senkung der Ticketkosten.
Ban new registrations of combustion engine vehicles from 2035
Should Switzerland ban the registration of new passenger cars with internal combustion engines starting in 2035?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Achieve climate targets through incentives
To achieve climate targets, should incentives and target agreements be relied on exclusively, rather than bans and restrictions?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
For an economy within planetary boundaries, profound change is needed. Many of these measures will be hardly noticeable in the everyday life of the Swiss population: legally binding reduction targets of the financial sector, general efficiency measures, promotion of bio-based building materials, etc. Other measures will noticeably improve our lives: Sustainable settlement policy ("cities of short distances"), reduction of working hours, etc.
Für eine Wirtschaft innerhalb der planetaren Grenzen braucht es einen tiefgreifenden Wandel. Viele dieser Massnahmen werden im Alltag der Schweizer Bevölkerung kaum spürbar sein: Rechtlich bindende Reduktionsziele des Finanzsektors, allgemeine Effizienzmassnahmen, Förderung von biologisch basierten Baumaterialien, etc. Andere Massnahmen werden unser Leben spürbar verbessern: Nachhaltige Siedlungspolitik ("Städte der kurzen Wege"), Arbeitszeitverkürzung, etc.
Make the rules for renewable energy less strict
Do you think it's fair that environmental and landscape protection rules are being relaxed to allow for the development of renewable energy?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Authorize the construction of new nuclear power plants
Should the construction of new nuclear power plants in Switzerland be allowed again?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Ensure a comprehensive range of public services
Should the state guarantee a comprehensive public service offering also in rural regions?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
In particular, the expansion of public transport in rural regions is essential for the transport turnaround.
Insbesondere der Ausbau des öffentlichen Verkehrs in ländlichen Regionen ist unerlässlich für die Verkehrswende.
Introduce progressive electricity tariffs
Would you be in favor of the introduction of increasing electricity tariffs when consumption is higher (progressive electricity tariffs)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Those who consume more should also pay more.
Wer mehr verbraucht, soll auch mehr bezahlen.
Nature conservation
Making provisions for the protection of large predators more flexible
Are you in favor of further relaxing the protection regulations for large predators (lynx, wolf, bear)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Large carnivores are part of the natural ecosystem and play an important role in maintaining the balance. A relaxation of protection regulations could lead to an imbalance and have long-term, negative effects on biodiversity and the ecological balance.
Grossraubtiere sind Teil des natürlichen Ökosystems und spielen eine wichtige Rolle bei der Aufrechterhaltung des Gleichgewichts. Eine Lockerung der Schutzbestimmungen könnte zu einem Ungleichgewicht führen und langfristige, negative Auswirkungen auf die Artenvielfalt und das ökologische Gleichgewicht haben.
Direct payments for farms
Should direct payments only be granted to farmers with proof of ecological performance?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
General direct payments should be abolished and only agroecological production systems without exploitation of the environment, humans and animals should be supported by public funds. The farms should be financially supported in the conversion to sustainable production, if necessary.
Allgemeine Direktzahlungen sollen abgeschafft werden und ausschliesslich agrarökologische Produktionssysteme ohne Ausbeutung von Umwelt, Menschen und Tieren sollten durch öffentliche Gelder gefördert werden. Die Landwirtschaftsbetriebe sollen im Umbau hin zu einer nachhaltigen Produktion, falls nötig finanziell unterstützt werden.
Introduction of stricter rules on the protection of farm animals
Are you in favour of stricter animal welfare regulations for livestock (e.g. permanent access to outdoor areas)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
All farm animals must be bred, kept and fed in a manner appropriate to their species.
Alle Nutztiere müssen artgerecht gezüchtet, gehalten und ernährt werden.
National territory available for biodiversity conservation
Should 30% of Switzerland's land area be dedicated to preserving biodiversity? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Ban on single-use plastics
Would you support a ban on single-use plastic and non-recyclable plastics? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Single-use plastics and non-recyclable plastics are a significant source of environmental pollution. After single use, they often end up in the environment, especially in our oceans and rivers. There, they can cause significant damage to wildlife and their ecosystems. Additionally, the production of plastics requires significant amounts of raw materials such as petroleum or natural gas. Single-use plastics increase this use of resources.
Einwegplastik und nicht-rezyklierbare Kunststoffe sind eine bedeutende Quelle von Umweltverschmutzung. Nach einmaliger Verwendung landen sie häufig in der Umwelt, insbesondere in unseren Ozeanen und Flüssen. Dort können sie erhebliche Schäden für die Tierwelt und deren Ökosysteme verursachen. Zusätzlich erfordert die Herstellung von Kunststoffen erhebliche Mengen an Rohstoffen wie Erdöl oder Erdgas. Einwegplastik verstärkt diese Ressourcennutzung.
More sustainable use of electronic devices
Are you in favour of government measures to make the use of electronic devices more sustainable (e.g., right to repair, extension of warranty period, minimum guaranteed period for software updates)? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
For our economy to function within planetary boundaries, we need to move away from the throwaway mentality. This includes framework conditions that make repairs possible and more attractive than buying new. One possibility is the right to repair or tax breaks on repair work.
Damit unsere Wirtschaft innerhalb der planetaren Grenzen funktioniert, müssen wir weg von der Wegwerfmentalität kommen. Dazu gehören Rahmenbedingungen, die Reparaturen ermöglichen und attraktiver machen als ein Neukauf. Eine Möglichkeit ist das Recht auf Reparatur oder Steuervergünstigungen auf Reparaturarbeiten.
Democracy, Media & Digitization
Mobile phone network (5G)
Should the Swiss mobile network be equipped throughout the country with the latest technology (currently 5G standard)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Digitizing public services
Should the federal government be given additional powers in the area of digitization of government services in order to be able to impose binding directives and standards on the cantons?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Strengthening regulation of big internet platforms
Are you in favor of stronger regulation of the major Internet platforms (i.e., transparency rules on algorithms, increased liability for content, combating disinformation)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Lowering TV and radio license fees
A popular initiative aims to reduce television and radio fees (CHF 200 per household, exemption for businesses). Do you support this initiative?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
In a system in which the electorate can decide four times a year on new constitutional provisions and referendums, political (high-quality) information is all the more important. Young people in particular would be affected by the cutback. The reduction of Billag fees will make the prices for marginal offers on radio and television more expensive. Offerings that the broad masses do not support will be eliminated in the future. This also includes services for young people.
In einem System, in welchem die Stimmbevölkerung vier Mal pro Jahr über neue Verfassungsbestimmungen und Referenden bestimmen kann, ist politische (hochwertige) Information umso wichtiger. Besonders junge Menschen wären von dem Kahlschlag betroffen. Die Reduktion der Billag-Gebühren wird die Preise für Randangebote in Radio und Fernsehen verteuern. Angebote, welche die breite Masse nicht unterstützt, werden in Zukunft wegfallen. So auch das Angebot für die Jugend.
Lowering the voting age to 16
Are you in favour of lowering the voting age to 16?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
It is important that young people can determine their future as early as possible, because they have to live with it the longest. The earlier young people can participate in the political process, the earlier politicization takes place. Together with a strong education at school about our political system and current political issues, we achieve a high voter and election turnout among young people.
Es ist wichtig das junge Menschen so früh wie möglich über ihr Zukunft bestimmen können, da diese am längsten damit zu leben haben. Je früher junge Menschen am politischen Prozess teilhaben können, desto früher findet eine Politisierung statt. Zusammen mit einer starken schulischen Bildung über unser politisches System und die aktuellen politischen Fragen erreichen wir eine hohe Stimm- und Wahlbeteiligung bei jungen Menschen.
Introducing an optional financial referendum against federal spending
Should it be possible to hold a referendum on federal spending above a certain amount (optional financial referendum)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Security & military
Increasing the size of the army to at least 120,000 soldiers
Are you in favor of expanding the army's target number of soldiers to at least 120,000?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The army in its current form has had its day. Instead of an outdated and inefficient army, Switzerland needs a civilian peacekeeping, environmental or social service, which all people living in Switzerland can perform voluntarily.
Die Armee hat in ihrer heutigen Form ausgedient. Anstelle einer veralteten und ineffizienten Armee braucht die Schweiz einen zivilen Friedens-, Umwelt- oder Sozialdienst, welchen alle in der Schweiz lebenden Personen freiwillig leisten können.
Strengthening cooperation between the Swiss army and NATO
Should the Swiss Armed Forces expand their cooperation with NATO?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Re-export of Swiss weapons
Should the Federal Council be allowed to authorize other states to re-export Swiss weapons in cases of a war of aggression in violation of international law (e.g., the attack on Ukraine)? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Switzerland has much more effective levers to use internationally for peace and people in need (e.g. in the case of Ukraine with sanctions, consistent freezing of funds and a stop of Russian commodity trade via Switzerland).
Die Schweiz hat deutlich wirkungsvollere Hebel sich international für Frieden und Menschen in der Not einzusetzen (z.B. im Fall der Ukraine mit Sanktionen, konsequenter Einfrierung von Geldern und einem Stopp von russischem Rohstoffhandel über die Schweiz).

Denounce the Schengen Agreement and strengthen border controls
Should Switzerland terminate the Schengen agreement with the EU and reintroduce more security checks directly on the border? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
This agreement is the first step towards a world with open borders. This offers many advantages. However, the agreement must be critically questioned in various aspects, such as the arming of the EU's external borders by Frontex.
Dieses Abkommen ist der erster Schritt hin zu einer Welt mit offenen Grenzen. Dies bietet viele Vorteile. Jedoch ist das Abkommen in verschiedenen Aspekten kritisch zu hinterfragen, so beispielsweise der Aufrüstung der EU-Aussengrenzen durch Frontex.
Foreign trade & foreign policy
Seek closer relations with the EU
Are you in favor of closer relations with the European Union (EU)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Switzerland is highly integrated into the European market, and close relations with the EU could further facilitate trade, investment and economic cooperation. In addition, close relations with the EU promotes and strengthens political cooperation, which among other things can also facilitate access to research programs, educational projects and scientific exchanges. I therefore also supported the Europe Initiative.
Die Schweiz ist stark in den europäischen Markt integriert, und enge Beziehungen zur EU könnten den Handel, die Investitionen und die wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit weiter erleichtern. Zusätzlich fördert und stärkt enge Beziehungen mit der EU die politische Zusammenarbeit, welcher unter anderem auch den Zugang zu Forschungsprogrammen, Bildungsprojekten und wissenschaftlichem Austausch erleichtern kann. Ich unterstützte daher auch die Europainitiative.
Seek a comprehensive free trade agreement with the United States
Should Switzerland strive for a comprehensive free trade agreement (including agriculture) with the USA?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comply with social and environmental standards
Should Swiss companies be obliged to ensure that their subsidiaries and suppliers operating abroad comply with social and environmental standards?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Swiss companies must also comply with human rights and environmental standards abroad in accordance with international law. If they violate them, they should be able to be convicted of this in Swiss courts and pay compensation. For this reason, I also supported the corporate responsibility initiative.
Schweizer Unternehmen müssen auch im Ausland Menschenrechte und Umweltstandards gemäss internationalem Recht einhalten. Wenn sie dagegen verstossen, sollen sie dafür vor Schweizer Gerichten verurteilt werden können und Schadenersatz zahlen. Ich habe aus diesem Grund auch die Konzernverantwortungsinitiative unterstützt.
Terminate bilateral agreements with the EU
Should Switzerland terminate the Bilateral Agreements with the EU and seek a free trade agreement without the free movement of persons?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The free movement of persons has enabled Switzerland to recruit workers from the EU and alleviate its shortage of skilled labor. Termination could lead to shortages in certain industries.
Die Personenfreizügigkeit hat es der Schweiz ermöglicht, Arbeitskräfte aus der EU zu rekrutieren und ihren Fachkräftemangel zu mildern. Eine Kündigung könnte zu Engpässen in bestimmten Branchen führen.
Return to a strict interpretation of neutrality
Should Switzerland return to a strict interpretation of neutrality (renounce economic sanctions to a large extent)? [BePart question]

There is an urgent need for a reorientation of police attitudes and rights. More preventive social work, inclusion and decriminalization, and a fight against the abuse of power, racial profiling, groundless and discriminatory repression.

The free market economy already causes great suffering, the gap between poor and rich people in Switzerland is huge. Instead of infinite growth and ruthless profit maximization, an intact environment and the well-being of all people should become the first priority of the economy.
Die freie Marktwirtschaft verursacht bereits jetzt grosses Leid, die Schere zwischen armen und reichen Menschen in der Schweiz ist riesig.

Increasing the retirement age and making it more flexible does not affect everyone equally. Rich people can take early retirement, while most have to work until old age.
Eine Erhöhung und Flexibilisierung des Rentenalters betrifft nicht alle gleich. Reiche Menschen können in die Frühpension, während die Meisten bis ins hohe Alter arbeiten müssen.
