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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Healthcare costs are rising. In order to guarantee medical care for all, higher premium reductions are needed. No one should have to neglect health due to a lack of financial resources.
Die Gesundheitskosten steigen. Um die medizinische Versorgung aller zu gewährleisten, braucht es höhere Prämienverbilligungen. Niemand sollte aufgrund von mangelndem finanziellen Mittel die Gesundheit vernachlässige müssen.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
At present, it is very difficult for fathers to take care of their child. It is often less possible for men to work part-time. The care for children is thus shifted to the mothers alone, although their bodies urgently need rest after birth and pregnancy. 2 or 14 weeks are too few weeks to leave a child alone. The current regulation institutionalizes the traditional gender order and leaves little room for deviation.
Zur Zeit ist für Väter sehr schwierig sich um ihr Kind zu kümmern. Oftmals ist es für Männer auch weniger möglich Teilzeit zu arbeiten. Die Sorge für Kinder wird damit allein den Müttern zu geschoben, obwohl z.B. deren Körper nach Geburt und Schwangerschaft Erholung dringend nötig haben. 2, bzw. 14 Wochen sind zu wenig, um ein Kind alleine zu lassen. Die bisherige Regelung institutionalisiert die traditionelle Geschlechterordnung und lässt nur wenig Raum für Abweichung.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Examples such as the city of Zurich show the effects of an unregulated housing market: unaffordable prices for the smallest apartments. Low-income earners are thus forced out of the city. Non-profit housing is one way to combat this.
Beispiele wie die Stadt Zürich zeigen die Auswirkungen eines unregulierten Wohnungsmarkt: unbezahlbare Preise für kleinste Wohnungen. Geringverdienende werden so aus der Stadt gedrängt. Gemeinnütziger Wohnungsbau ist eine Möglichkeit dagegen vorzugehen.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Vaccination is an important medical achievement to eradicate and contain epidemics, increase overall life expectancy and reduce infant mortality. However, it is important to have a professional discussion regarding the vaccines (or companies) used.
Impfen ist eine wichtige medizinische Errungenschaft zur Ausrotten und Eindämmen von Seuchen, der Steigerung der allgemeinen Lebenserwartung und Senken der Kindersterblichkeit. Es ist jedoch wichtig, dass eine fachliche Diskussion bezüglich der verwendeten Impfstoffe (bzw. Firmen) geführt wird.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Our food often already contains a lot of sugar because it tastes good to consumers and thus sells better. In excess, however, sugar can trigger diseases (e.g. diabetes). A sugar tax seems counterproductive to me, because it also affects consumers and puts the responsibility of nutrition on individuals. A regulation of food companies makes more sense to me.
Unsere Lebensmittel enthalten häufig bereits viel Zucker, weil es den Konsument:innen schmeckt und sich damit besser verkauft. Im Überfluss kann Zucker jedoch Krankheiten (z.B. Diabetes) auslösen. Eine Zuckersteuer scheint mir jedoch kontraproduktiv, da es auch Konsument:innen trifft und die Verantwortung der Ernährung auf Einzelen legt. Eine Regulierung bei Nahrungsmittelkonzernen ist für mir sinnvolller.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
For many, the deductible is already too high, despite premium reductions.
Für viele ist die Franchise schon zu hoch, trotz der Prämienverbilligungen.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
In the event of a widespread health risk such as a pandemic, the state must be able to take protective measures for the population. Fast action is very important for this. However, if there is no legal basis for this, this can lead to the loss of human lives in a future health emergency.
Bei einem flächendeckenden Gesundheitsrisiko wie einer Pandemie muss der Staat in der Lage sein schützende Massnahmen für die Bevölkerung zu ergreifen. Schnelles Handeln ist dafür sehr wichtig. Existiert aber dafür keine gesetzliche Grundlage, kann dies in einer künftigen gesundheitlichen Notlage zum Verlust von Menschenleben führen.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
At the moment, there are large differences in quality between hospitals in different cantons - to the detriment of the patients. The creation of a general standard by the federal government would prevent this.
Im Moment gibt es zwischen den Kantonen qualitativ z.T. grosse Unterschiede zwischen den Spitälern - zu Lasten der Patient:innen. Das Schaffen eines allgemeinen Standards durch den Bund würde dies verhindern.
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 principle, children of all kinds should have equal access to education. School helps to integrate children with learning difficulties, neurodivergence, etc. in society and to increase the acceptance of other children for this. However, this only works if the educational institutions also have sufficient staff to care for the children. I see great potential for improvement in this area.
Grundsätzlich sollen Kinder jeder Art einen gleichwertigen Zugang zu Bildung erhalten. Schule hilft Kinder mit Lernschwierigkeiten, Neurodivergenz etc. in der Gesellschaft zu integrieren und die Akzeptanz der anderen Kinder dafür zu steigern. Allerdings funktioniert das nur, wenn die Bildungsinstitutionen auch ausreichend Personal zur Betreuung der Kinder hat. Darin sehe ich noch grosses Verbesserungspotential.
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
On the one hand: there are major differences between cantons and grammar schools in terms of requirements, quality and Matura rate (cf. Federal Statistical Office). So where to start? On the other hand: Restricting access to higher education at a time when it is open to the broad population has an elitist flavor. Why not try to make vocational apprenticeships more attractive?
Zum einen: zwischen Kantonen und Gymnasien gibt es grössere Differenzen bezüglich Anforderungen, Qualität und Maturitätsquote (vgl. Bundesamt für Statistik). Wo also anfangen? Zum anderen: Den Zugang zur höheren Bildung zu beschränken, zu einem Zeitpunkt, sie der breiten Bevölkerung offen steht, hat eine elitäre Note. Warum versucht man nicht Berufslehren attraktiver zu machen?
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Education is the key to good income and social advancement. To ensure equal opportunities for all, investments must also be made accordingly.
Bildung ist der Schlüssel für gutes Einkommen und sozialer Aufstieg. Um Chancengleichheit für alle zu gewährleisten, muss auch entsprechend investiert werden.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
About a quarter of the Swiss population does not have Swiss citizenship and is excluded from political decision-making, although many of them have lived in Switzerland for years, in some cases since birth. Why is naturalization made more difficult for these people by long deadlines, administrative processes, etc.?
Etwa ein Viertel der schweizerischen Bevölkerung verfügt nicht über die schweizerische Staatsbürgerschaft und ist von der politischen Entscheidungsfindung ausgeschlossen, obwohl viele davon seit Jahren, z.T. seit Geburt in der Schweiz wohnt. Warum wird diesen Menschen die Einbürgerung durch lange Fristen, Verwaltungsprozesse etc erschwert?
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The Swiss economy needs workers.
Die schweizerische Wirtschaft braucht Arbeitskräfte.
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
The way to Europe via the Mediterranean Sea, etc. claims many victims. Accepting asylum requests on the spot avoids this - and, in case of direct persecution, can be life-saving.
Der Weg nach Europa über das Mittelmeer, etc. fordert viele Opfer. Asylanfragen vor Ort entgegen nehmen, vermeidet dies - und kann, im Falle einer direkten Verfolgung, lebensrettend 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
In principle, yes. However, I am more in favor of facilitated naturalization.
Grundsätzlich ja. Ich befürworte allerdings eher eine erleichterte Einbürgerung.
Society & ethics
Legalize cannabis use
Should cannabis use be legalized? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Legalization and accompanying regulation can curb dangers, such as overdoses, etc.. E.g. with standards for the THC content.
Die Legalisierung und damit einhergehende Regulierung können Gefahren, wie Überdosen, etc. eindämmen. Z.B. mit Standards für den THC-Gehalt.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Introdurre un terzo sesso ufficiale
Should a third official gender be introduced alongside "female" and "male"?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
There have always been non-binary people in European history as well. The introduction of a third gender entry recognizes their existence and has long been superfluous.
Auch in der europäischen Geschichte gab es immer wieder non-binäre Menschen. Die Einführung eines dritten Geschlechtseintrags anerkennt ihre Existenz und ist längst überflüssig.
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
The state needs an income in order to be able to provide social, transport, education, etc. services. However, taxation must be fair.
Der Staat braucht ein Einkommen, um Leistungen im Sozialen, Transport, Bildung etc. erbringen zu können. Allerdings muss die Besteuerung gerecht erfolgen.
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
Inheritances consolidate social injustices over generations. Too much social injustice destabilizes societies, so redistribution must take place. As a sign of solidarity with poorer classes, an inheritance tax is very important.
Erbschaften festigen soziale Ungerechtigkeiten über Generationen. Zu hohe soziale Ungerechtigkeit destabilisiert Gesellschaften, es muss daher eine Umverteilung stattfinden. Als Zeichen der Solidarität mit ärmeren Schichten ist eine Erbschaftssteuer sehr wichtig.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
As the Credit Suisse collapse has reminded us, big banks (like UBS) have a huge impact on our economy. This risk comes with responsibility and rules.
Wie der Zusammenbruch der Credit Suisse uns in Erinnerung gerufen hat, haben grosse Banken (wie die UBS) eine enorme Auswirkungen auf unsere Wirtschaft. Dieses Risiko kommt mit Verantwortung und Regeln.
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
Electricity is a basic commodity of every household and should not be subject to free market regulations, but should be available to all at the same price.
Strom ist ein Grundrohstoff eines jeden Haushalts und sollte nicht den Regelungen des freien Marktes unterliegen, sondern für alle zum selben Preis erhältlich sein.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
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
Incentives and target agreements are certainly useful to promote climate-neutral innovations. However, this does not work in all areas (e.g. combustion engines, coal-fired power plants, etc.). To achieve climate goals, some bans are also needed. However, the state has the responsibility to ensure the transition to sustainability in a socially just way.
Anreize und Zielvereinbarungen sind sicher nützlich, um klimaneutrale Innovationen zu fördern. Allerdings funktioniert dies nicht in allen Bereichen (z.B. Verbrennungsmotore, Kohlekraftwerke etc.). Um die Klimaziele zu erreichen, braucht es auch einige Verbote. Der Staat hat aber die Verantwortung den Übergang zur Nachhaltigkeit auf sozial-gerechte Weise zu gewährleisten.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Direct payments for farms
Should direct payments only be granted to farmers with proof of ecological performance?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
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
The latest technology is important for Switzerland's performance (and communication, entertainment via the Internet). However, associated risks of all kinds should first be clarified, eliminated and communicated to the population accordingly before installation.
Neuste Technologie ist wichtig für die Leistungsfähigkeit der Schweiz (und Kommunikation, Unterhaltung über das Internet). Verbundene Risiken aller Art sollten jedoch vor der Installierung zuerst abgeklärt, ausgeräumt und der Bevölkerung entsprechend kommuniziert werden.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Disinformation is a huge problem on the web that is also leaving more and more traces in society. Regulation alone is not the solution that will completely solve the problem. The population's skills in recognizing false reports and the like, fact checkers, etc. are just as important.
Desinformation ist ein riesiges Problem im Netz, dass auch in der Gesellschaft immer mehr Spuren hinterlässt. Regulierung alleine ist nicht die Lösung, die das Problem vollständig löst. Kompetenzen der Bevölkerung zum Erkennen von Falschmeldungen o.Ä., Faktenchecker etc. sind ebenso wichtig.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Lowering the voting age to 16
Are you in favour of lowering the voting age to 16?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Such a referendum ensures more democratic decision-making; however, depending on the amount, it paralyzes the work processes of the federal administration. If the amount is too low, I am against it.
Ein solches Referendum sorgt für mehr demokratische Entscheidungsmöglichkeit; je nach Höhe des Betrags lähmt es aber die Arbeitsprozesse der Bundesverwaltung. Ist der Betrag zu niedrig, so bin ich dagegen.
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
Compared to other armies in the world, the Swiss army is already large enough in terms of territory, population and threat level. An expansion is not justified.
Die Schweizer Armee ist im Vergleich zu anderen Armeen der Welt gemessen an Territorium, Bevölkerungszahl und Bedrohungslage bereits gross genug. Ein Ausbau ist nicht gerechtfertigt.
Strengthening cooperation between the Swiss army and NATO
Should the Swiss Armed Forces expand their cooperation with NATO?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Switzerland is part of Europe and is seen as such by most of the world. As Russia's attack on Ukraine in 2022 showed, there is also a threat in Europe. A defense of Switzerland must be thought of in the light of modern warfare and weapons in the context of our neighboring countries (all except Austria NATO members).
Die Schweiz ist Teil von Europa und wird vom Grossteil der Welt als solcher gesehen. Wie der Angriff Russlands auf die Ukraine 2022 gezeigt hat, besteht auch in Europa eine Bedrohtung. Eine Verteidigung der Schweiz muss Angesichts moderner Kriegsführung und Waffen im Zusammenhang mit unseren Nachbarstaaten (alle ausser Österreich NATO-Mitglieder) gedacht werden.
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
It is absolutely absurd that Switzerland is allowed to supply weapons to autocracies like Saudi Arabia, but not to Ukraine. Apart from the whole ethical-moral component of the discussion, it is also in Switzerland's security interest to support Ukraine. Switzerland is part of Europe. And: Who knows whether the Russian leadership will stop after an attack?
Es ist absolut widersinnig, dass die Schweiz an Autokratien wie Saudi Arabien Waffen liefern darf, aber an die Ukraine nicht. Mal abgesehen von der ganzen ethisch-moralischen Komponente der Diskussion ist es auch im Sicherheitsinteresse der Schweiz, die Ukraine zu unterstützen. Die Schweiz ist Teil von Europa. Und: Wer weiss, ob die russische Führung nach einem Angriff halt macht?
Scumonda da visar automaticamain la fatscha en locals publics
Should automatic facial recognition be banned in public spaces?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The technology is already used, for example, at the airport for passport control, searches or logins. However, facial recognition can easily be misused to monitor the population to prevent crime or terrorism. Furthermore, facial recognition is often inaccurate, especially when it comes to people of color, or women, and can thus reproduce racism. For me, what is important is where and for what purpose the technology is used and how accurate it is.
Die Technologie wird z.B. am Flughafen bei der Passkontrolle bereits verwendet, Recherchen oder bei Logins. Allerdings kann Gesichtserkunnung leicht missbraucht werden zur Überwachung der Bevölkerung zur Prävention von Verbrechen oder Terrorismus. Des Weiteren ist Gesichtserkennung oftmals ungenau, besonders wenn es um People of Coulour, bzw. Frauen geht und kann so Rassismus reproduzieren. Für mich ist wichtig, wo und zu welchem Zweck die Technik verwendet wird und wie genau sie ist.
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 member of a fragmented border canton, I am clearly in favor of Schengen and little personal control
Als Angehörige eines zerstückelten Grenzkantons bin ich klar für Schengen und wenig Personenkontrolle
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
The EU are our neighbors. Cooperation with EU states is indispensable. After all, we depend on them economically and socially. Stronger economic cooperation could also shorten supply chains and curb greenhouse gas emissions.
Die EU sind unsere Nachbarn. Eine Zusammenarbeit mit EU-Staaten ist unabdingbar. Schliesslich sind wir wirtschaftlich und gesellschaftlich auf sie angewiesen. Eine stärkere wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit könnte auch Lieferketten verkürzen und den Treibhausgasausstoss eindämmen.

Comment

It is no coincidence that the 20th century was characterized by the weakening of the free market economy, which succeeded with the introduction of AHV, IV, unemployment insurance, maternity protection, etc. The result of the free market economy is the climate crisis. Another result of the free market economy is now being felt in our own bodies: the climate crisis.
Es ist kein Zufall, dass das 20. Jahrhundert davon geprägt war, die freie Marktwirtschaft abzuschwächen, was mit der Einführung von AHV, IV, Arbeitslosenversicherung, Mutterschutz etc auch gelang. Ein anderes Resultat der freien Marktwirtschaft spüren wir jetzt am eigenen Leib: die Klimakrise.

Comment
Raising the retirement age to contain pension costs may seem sensible at first glance. However, the labor market has little need for people aged 50 and older, as the high numbers of old-age unemployment show. It is precisely these years that are crucial for old-age provision, so that those affected receive little pension. Therefore, the revision of the PF (2nd pillar) should be waited for before raising the pension.
Das Rentenalter anzuheben, um die Kosten der Altersvorsorge einzudämmen, mag auf den ersten Blick sinnvoll erscheinen. Der Arbeitsmarkt hat für Menschen ab 50 Jahren allerdings nur wenig Bedarf, wie die hohen Zahlen von Altersarbeitslosigkeit zeigen. Gerade diese Jahre sind entscheidend für die Altersvorsorge, so dass Betroffene nur von wenig Pension erhalten. Vor dem Anheben des Renten sollte daher die Revidierung der PK (2. Säule) abgewartet werden.
