| 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 |

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?

Restrictions should be possible in justified exceptions, while maintaining democratic control mechanisms.
Einschränkungen sollen, unter Wahrung der demokratischen Kontrollmechanismen, in begründeten Ausnahmen möglich sein.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
In my opinion, the current system of inclusion has its limits, even if it does create human and social added value to a certain extent.
Das aktuelle System der Inklusion stösst m.E. an Grenzen, auch wenn es in einem gewissen Mass durchaus menschliche und soziale Mehrwerte schafft.
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
The gymnasiale Matura should be reserved for those who are motivated and able to educate themselves theoretically to a special degree. It should not be a standard path for children from good families, nor should it lead to better career opportunities than other paths.
Die gymnasiale Matura soll jenen vorbehalten sein, die motiviert und fähig sind, sich in besonderem Mass theoretisch zu bilden. Sie soll kein Standardweg für Kinder aus gutem Hause sein und auch nicht zu besseren Karrieremöglichkeiten führen als andere Wege.

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?

|---|---|---|---|
Comment
An option that I see as conceivable but not urgent. I was an adult foreigner in Switzerland for 18 years and found enough opportunities to get involved socially.
Eine Option, die ich als vorstellbar aber nicht vordringlich ansehe. Ich war 18 Jahre lang erwachsener Ausländer in der Schweiz und fand genügend Möglichkeiten, mich gesellschaftlich einzubringen.

|---|---|---|---|
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 |
|---|---|---|---|

Not a simple question. It can only be answered conclusively in connection with questions of progression, tax relief, etc.

Should married couples be taxed separately (individual taxation)? [BePart question]

Comment
Those who have inherited undeservedly may well give something.
Wer unverdient geerbt hat, darf durchaus etwas geben.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
If more fiscal equalization can curb the skewed settlement movements we know today, then I clearly support it.
Wenn mehr Finanzausgleich die verzerrten Siedlungsbewegungen eindämmen können, die wir heute kennen, dann befürworte ich ihn klar.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
For all the joy of certain market incentives in the energy industry, I fear that simple customers are losing sight of the big picture.
Bei aller Freude an gewissen Marktanreizen in der Energiewirtschaft: Ich befürchte, dass einfache Kunden den Überblick verlieren.
Make housing construction regulations more flexible
Should housing construction regulations be relaxed (e.g., noise protection, occupancy rates)?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
I support the relaxation of noise protection in the interest of sensible densification. I am also in favor of easing the restrictions on the use of space, for the same reason.
Die Lockerung des Lärmschutzes befürworte ich im Interesse sinnvoller Verdichtungen. Die Lockerung von Ausnützungsbegrenzungen ebenso, aus dem gleichen Grund.
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
The automobile is not a means of transport for the future. Promoting it through more highways is a misguided incentive.
Das Automobil ist kein Verkehrsmittel der Zukunft. Es durch mehr Autobahnen zu fördern, ist ein Fehlanreiz.
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
Rather yes. But it won't work entirely without bans, regulations and restrictions.
Eher ja. Es wird aber nicht ganz ohne Verbote, Vorschriften und Einschränkungen gehen.

Do you think it's fair that environmental and landscape protection rules are being relaxed to allow for the development of renewable energy?

|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Here we must indeed be prepared to make certain compromises.
Hier müssen wir tatsächlich zu gewissen Kompromissen bereit sein.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The advantage of CO2-free energy generation is countered by considerable risks, as well as far too high costs and deadlines until possible commissioning. New nuclear power plants for the next decades are daydreaming (or frothing at the mouth).
Dem Vorteil CO2-freier Energieerzeugung stehen erhebliche Risiken entgegen, ebenso viel zu hohe Kosten und Fristen bis zu einer möglichen Inbetriebnahme. Neue AKW für die nächsten Jahrzehnte sind Tagträumerei (oder Schaumschlägerei).
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
Absolutely. Without a post office, telephone, public transport, schools and offices within easy reach, lively rural settlements will die out. Rural infrastructure costs money, but it is an excellent investment in stable social structures.
Unbedingt. Ohne Post, Telefon, ÖV, Schulen und Ämtern in erreichbarer Nähe sterben lebendige ländliche Siedlungen aus. Ländliche Infrastruktur kostet, ist aber eine exzellente Investition in stabile gesellschaftliche Strukturen.
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
It's simple: we need to use less electricity, not more.
Ganz einfach: wir müssen weniger Strom verbrauchen, nicht mehr.
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
The ecological benefit seems to me to be manageable in view of the considerable effects, e.g. on alpine farming. Therefore rather no, so no further relaxation.
Der ökologische Nutzen scheint mir angesichts erheblicher Auswirkungen z.B. auf die Alpwirtschaft überschaubar. Darum eher nein, also keine weitere Lockerung.
Direct payments for farms
Should direct payments only be granted to farmers with proof of ecological performance?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Agriculture must find its way back to more ecology. It can do that, and that is to be encouraged.
Die Landwirtschaft muss zurückfinden zu mehr Ökologie. Sie kann das und das ist zu fördern.
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)?

|---|---|---|---|
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
At the very least, I support measures to significantly reduce it compared to today.
Zumindest befürworte ich Massnahmen zur deutlichen Reduktion gegenüber heute.
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
We must return to a sensible use of resources. This will hardly succeed without such measures.
Wir müssen zurückfinden zu einem vernünftigen Umgang mit Ressourcen. Das wird ohne solche Massnahmen kaum gelingen.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Cellular is ok, but we don't need to be able to watch movies in every neighborhood or mountain valley as quickly as possible.
Mobilfunk ist ok, wir müssen aber nicht in jedem Quartier oder Bergtal schnellstmöglich Filme ansehen können.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
With a sense of proportion, certain government standards make sense. As much as necessary and as little as possible.
Mit Augenmass machen gewisse staatliche Standards Sinn. So viel wie nötig und so wenig wie möglich.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Every public medium bears great responsibility. This may be demanded.
Jedes öffentliche Medium trägt grosse Verantwortung. Diese darf eingefordert werden.

|---|---|---|---|
Lowering the voting age to 16
Are you in favour of lowering the voting age to 16?

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
I don't trust myself to judge what target level is appropriate.
Ich traue mir kein Urteil zu, welcher Sollbestand angemessen ist.

Should the Swiss Armed Forces expand their cooperation with NATO?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Injustice and inhumane actions can only be fought with a determined attitude.
Unrecht und menschenverachtendes Handeln bekämpft man nur mit einer entschlossenen Haltung.

|---|---|---|---|
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
As a border resident, I can live with both the current and the previous system. Certain checks on persons should be possible, but they are also possible with Schengen.
Als Grenzbewohner kann ich mit dem heutigen wie dem früheren System leben. Gewisse Personenkontrollen sollen möglich sein, sind es aber auch mit Schengen.

Comment
State abuse is fortunately not the rule. But it is as old as mankind and it also occurs in a democratic country like Switzerland. Unfortunately.
Staatlicher Missbrauch ist zum Glück nicht die Regel. Er ist aber so alt wie die Menschheit und er kommt auch in einem demokratischen Land wie der Schweiz vor. Leider.

Comment
The market has the potential to do a lot of good. But it also has the potential to cause great damage to society. The social and ecological market economy remains the goal we must work towards every day.
Der Markt hat das Potenzial sehr viel Gutes zu leisten. Aber auch das Potenzial grosser gesellschaftlicher Schäden. Die soziale und ökologische Marktwirtschaft bleibt das Ziel, an dem wir täglich arbeiten müssen.
Compensate for differences in income and wealth
What is your position the following statement: "It is necessary for the State to balance out differences in income and wealth through redistribution".

A certain degree of compensation by the state is indispensable for a stable and humane society.
Ein gewisses Mass an Ausgleich durch den Staat ist unabdingbar für eine stabile und menschliche Gesellschaft.

I know and appreciate the advantages of both ways of life. And I know the risks of both ways of life. Respecting both is an imperative of wisdom.

Digital work tools can bring blessings as well as profound harm. Let us remain pragmatic and constantly examine what serves people and what harms them. Then let's use the digital world for a better world.
Digitale Arbeitsmittel können Segensreiches ebenso wie zutiefst Schädliches mit sich bringen. Bleiben wir pragmatisch und prüfen wir ständig, was den Menschen dient und was ihnen schadet. Dann nutzen wir die digitale Welt für eine bessere Welt.
Punish criminals

Comment
Probably we cannot avoid punishments. But reintegration is essential for a humane world for a stable society.
Vermutlich kommen wir nicht um Strafen herum. Die Wiedereingliederung ist aber essentiell für eine menschliche Welt für eine stabile Gesellschaft.
Stronger environmental protection

Comment
Consistent environmental protection also serves the economy in the long term. The much-vaunted conflict is artificially inflated.
Ein konsequenter Umweltschutz dient auf lange Sicht auch der Wirtschaft. Der vielbesungene Konflikt ist künstlich aufgebauscht.

Comment
Public transport has reached a considerable level in Switzerland. Further expansion seems to me to be necessary only to a limited extent, only where individual transport is really replaced or where peripheral regions benefit. However, I do not see the goal of traveling even more and faster between Zurich and Bern.
Der ÖV hat ein beachtliches Niveau erreicht in der Schweiz. Ein weiterer Ausbau scheint mir nur bedingt nötig, nur dort, wo wirklich individueller Verkehr ersetzt wird oder dort, wo Randregionen profitieren. Noch mehr und schneller zwischen Zürich und Bern hin- und herzufahren, sehe ich hingegen nicht als Ziel an.

Comment
I am very much in favor of social and fair health care, as well as certain elements of personal responsibility. At the same time, I question the usefulness of our system with health insurance companies competing with each other in the market.
Ich befürworte sehr eine soziale und gerechte Gesundheitsversorgung, ebenso gewisse Elemente der persönlichen Verantwortung. Gleichzeitig zweifle ich an der Sinnhaftigkeit unseres Systems mit einander am Markt konkurrierenden Krankenkassen.
