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
The available funds are sufficient
Die vorhandenen Mittel reichen aus
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The limit means a marriage penalty
Die Begrenzung bedeutet eine Heiratsstrafe
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
If the personal "stock" in the pension pot remains unchanged, the increase in life expectancy automatically means a reduction in the minimum conversion rate for me.
Bei gleichbleibendem persönlichem "Vorrat" im Rententopf bedeutet die Zunahme der Lebenserwartung für mich automatisch eine Senkung des Mindestumwandlungssatzes.
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
Extending parental leave does nothing. What does help new parents are more resources for childcare (daycare centers, day schools, lunch tables, task care).
Elternschaftsurlaube verlängern bringt nichts. Was frisch gebackenen Eltern etwas bringt sind mehr Mittel zur Kinderbetreuung (Kitas, Tagesschulen, Mittagstische, Aufgabenbetreuung).

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
Hypothetical question. It is about emergency law. Not everything was done well. But I would like to see those who would have done better!
Hypothetische Frage. Es geht um Notrecht. Es wurde nicht alles gut gemacht. Aber ich möchte diejenigen sehen, die es besser gemacht hätten!
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
Our problem is that no one wants to take the first step. So the federal government will have to take the lead. However, we also have to reorganize hospital financing, where the public sector now only pays for inpatient stays.
Unser Problem ist , dass niemand den ersten Schritt machen will. So muss der Bund wohl vorangehen. Allerdings müssen wir auch die Spitalfinanzierung neu organisieren, wo jetzt die öffentliche Hand nur bei stationärem Aufenthalt mitbezahlt.
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
The integrative school was well-intentioned, but overtaxed everyone. As far as I am concerned, the integrative school has failed and is one of the reasons for the shortage of teachers.
Die integrative Schule war gut gemeint , aber überfordert alle. Von mir aus ist die integrative Schule gescheitert und ein Mitgrund des Lehrermangels.
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
Above all, we have to get away from the belief that as many people as possible have to take the Matura. Lifelong learning is important, but the more practical, the better.
Vor allem müssen wir vom Glauben wegkommen, möglichst viele Leute müssten die Matura machen. Wichtig ist das lebenslange Lernen, aber je praktischer, desto besser.
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
It is important that a child does not fail to reach his or her potential simply because he or she comes from a disadvantaged background.
Wichtig ist, dass ein Kind nicht bloss deshalb sein Potenzial nicht abrufen kann, weil es aus einem benachteiligten Milieu stammt.
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
The problem is not the deadline. However, someone should be able to change the canton and place of residence during the period. One could imagine that the time limit could be shortened in the case of charitable commitment, i.e. if someone provides proof of integration.
Das Problem ist nicht die Frist. Jedoch soll jemand den Kanton und Wohnort während der Frist wechseln können. Man könnte sich vorstellen, dass die Frist bei gemeinnützigem Engagement verkürzt werden könnte, also wenn jemand den Tatbeweis der Integration erbringt.
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
After all, we are supposed to let in those who help us master the tasks of our society. That also gives us some breathing room vis-à-vis the EU.
Wir sollen doch diejenigen hereinlassen, die uns helfen, die Aufgaben unserer Gesellschaft zu meistern. Das gibt uns auch etwas Luft gegenüber der EU.
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
In my view, this is a populist demand that cannot be implemented in practice anyway and is therefore irrelevant.
Aus meiner Sicht ist das eine populistische Forderung, die in der Praxis ohnehin nicht umsetzbar ist und daher nicht relevant ist.
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
For me, the right to vote clearly comes only with their naturalization.
Für mich ist kommt das Wahlrecht ganz klar erst mit derer Einbürgerung.

Legalize cannabis use
Should cannabis use be legalized? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Yes, this decision is overdue. From my point of view, cannabis is no more sensitive than alcohol.
Ja, dieser Entscheid ist überfällig. Aus meiner Sicht ist Cannabis nicht heikler als Alkohol.

Introdurre un terzo sesso ufficiale
Should a third official gender be introduced alongside "female" and "male"?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

If anything, let's abolish it altogether. But since this is not possible, it is best to stay with the status quo
Wenn schon, dann schaffen wir es ganz ab. Da dies aber nicht geht, bleiben wir am besten beim Status Quo
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
This question cannot be answered in a blanket way. One could make all other taxes superfluous with a micro tax on transactions and slightly reduce direct and indirect (VAT) taxes.
Diese Frage kann nicht pauschal beantwortet werden. Man könnte mit einer Mikrosteuer auf Transaktionen alle anderen Steuern überflüssig machen und die direkten und indirekten (MwSt) steuern leicht senken.
Tax married couples individually
Should married couples be taxed separately (individual taxation)? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Individual taxation is the fair and sustainable solution.
Die Einzelpersonenbesteuerung ist die gerechte und zukunftsfähige Lösung.
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
Wealth has been taxed x times before. Inheritance tax is a punishment for taking good care of your descendants
Vermögen ist vorher schon x-mal besteuert worden. Erbschaftssteuer ist eine Bestrafung dafür, dass man sich gut um seine Nachkommen kümmert
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
The financial equalization is good as it is today.
Der Finanzausgleich ist gut, so wie er heute ist.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Minimum wage regulations are dirigiste and do nothing for the national economy. They simply lead to even fewer jobs for low-wage earners. Moreover, they shift even more jobs abroad. On the cantonal level, however, it is possible to talk about it. The canton of Neuchâtel has had a cantonal minimum wage of 3600 francs for some time. Having the same minimum wage nationwide would be quite bad for the weaker cantons.
Mindestlohnregelungen sind dirigistisch und bringen der Volkswirtschaft nichts. Sie führen einfach dazu, dass es noch weniger Stellen für Geringverdiener gibt. Zudem verlagern sie noch mehr Jobs ins Ausland. Auf Kantonsebene kann man jedoch darüber reden. Der Kt. Neuenburg hat seit längerem einen kantonalen Mindestlohn von 3600 Franken. Bundesweit den gleichen Mindestlohn zu haben, wäre für die schwächeren Kantone ganz schlecht.
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
What we need is an effective fine authority for FINMA. Then CS would have had to turn the wheel long before the bank run. However, CS's equity capital was large enough. Even a bonus ban would not have helped. But if CS had been fined billions twice by FINMA, it wouldn't have come to this.
Was wir brauchen, ist eine wirksame Bussenkompetenz für die FINMA. Dann hätte die CS lange vor dem Bank Run das Steuer herumreissen müssen. Das Eigenkapital hingegen war gross genug bei der CS. Auch ein Bonusverbot hätte da nichts gebracht. Hätte die CS aber zweimal eine Milliardenbusse bekommen von der FINMA, wäre es nicht soweit gekommen.
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
Such a step is overdue.
Ein solcher Schritt ist überfällig.
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
Noise regulations are currently outdated and lead to an unnecessary increase in the cost of housing. To protect the landscape, moderate density should be achieved with a slightly h
Die Lärmvorschriften sind aktuell veraltet und führen zu einer unnötigen Verteuerung des Wohnraums. Zum Schutz der Landschaft sollte moderat verdichtet werden mit einem leicht h
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Equal pay has been achieved to the greatest possible extent, as studies show time and again. However, the current measures must remain in force.
Die Lohngleichheit ist weitestgehend erreicht, wie die Untersuchungen immer wieder zeigen. Die aktuellen Massnahmen müssen aber in Kraft bleiben.
Energy & transport
Restructure heavily trafficked sections of the highway
Should busy sections of highways be widened?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Of course, the question relates primarily to the A1. It is Switzerland's lifeline, whether you like it or not. The only thing that permanent congestion leads to is higher prices for everyone. What is needed, however, is better financing. The highway toll sticker for only 40 francs is a joke.
Die Frage bezieht sich natürlich vor allem auf die A1. Sie ist die Lebensader der Schweiz, ob man das gut findet oder nicht. Der Dauerstau dort führt einzig zu höheren Preisen für alle. Es braucht aber eine bessere Finanzierung. Die Autobahnvignette für nur 40 Franken ist ein Witz.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
It is enough to make gasoline more expensive, which I support. There is no need for a ban, since hardly any more combustion engines will be built by then.
Es reicht, wenn man das Benzin teurer macht, was ich befürworte. Ein Verbot braucht es nicht, da bis dann kaum mehr Verbrenner gebaut werden.
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
As much as possible should be controlled via the wallet and technical progress. The solution is innovation, not bans.
Es soll möglichst viel übers Portemonnaie und technischen Fortschritt gesteuert werden. Die Lösung heisst Innovation, nicht Verbote.
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 |

Comment
What is the saying? You can't have the nickel and the dime.
Wie heisst es so schön? Mann kann nicht den Fünfer und das Weggli haben.
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
At the moment, everyone thinks that run-of-river power plants will continue to provide us with nice reliable strip power for 7 days and 24 hours. When I look at the droughts around the world, I think that this assumption does not apply to us either. So there is probably no way around new generation nuclear power plants.
Im Moment denken alle, dass uns die Laufwasserkraftwerke auch in Zukunft schön zuverlässig Bandstrom während 7 Tagen und 24 Stunden liefern werden. Wenn ich die Dürren auf der Welt anschaue, denke ich, dass diese Annahme auch bei uns nicht zutrifft. Somit führt wohl kein Weg an Kernkraftwerken der neuen Generation vorbei.
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
The state is almost too caring these days. But we can already travel to the furthest corners of our country by public transport. We can be satisfied with that, can't we?
Der Staat ist schon fast zu fürsorglich heutzutage. Aber wir können ja heute mit dem öV schon in den hintersten Winkel unseres Landes fahren. Damit können wir zufrieden sein, nicht wahr?
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
What we need are smart meters and dynamic electricity prices. Electricity should be expensive when it is scarce and cheap when there is a lot of it. That way, supply and demand will be smoothed out. That helps everyone.
Was wir brauchen, sind Smart Meter und dynamische Strompreise. Der Strom soll teuer sein, wenn er knapp ist, und günstig, wenn viel davon da ist. So wird Angebot und Nachfrage geglättet. Das hilft allen.
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 large carnivores belong back in our nature. In the past, we also lived with them. We have a well functioning herd protection. It would be absurd if we had to take a vacation trip to the USA to see bears and wolves in a national park, and we shoot them here.
Die Grossraubtiere gehören zurück in unsere Natur. Früher lebten wir auch mit ihnen. Wir haben einen gut funktionierenden Herdenschutz. Es wäre absurd, wenn wir eine Ferienreise nach USA machen müssten, um in eine Nationalpark Bären und Wölfe zu sehen, und bei uns knallen wir sie ab.
Direct payments for farms
Should direct payments only be granted to farmers with proof of ecological performance?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The ecological aspects must gain greater importance in agriculture. Intensive agriculture is also ill-equipped for climate change.
Die ökologischen Aspekte müssen eine grössere Bedeutung in der Landwirtschaft erlangen. Die intensive Landwirtschaft ist auch für den Klimawandel schlecht gerüstet.
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
Show me how you treat the animals and I will know what kind of person you are.
Zeig mir, wie du mit den Tieren umgehst, und ich weiss, was für ein Mensch du bist.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Biodiversity is essential for our survival. There is just too little known about it.
Die Biodiversität ist für uns überlebenswichtig. Es ist nur noch zuwenig bekannt.
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
In individual cases, a ban makes sense, as long as it can be lived.
In Einzelfällen ist ein Verbot sinnvoll, sofern es auch gelebt werden kann.
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
Would an official body then provide every approved electrical appliance with a service life certificate for expensive money? I don't see the practical feasibility of this. As a consumer, I have a wide choice today and can choose the dealer who gives me a guarantee.
Würde dann eine Amtsstelle jedes zugelassene Elektrogerät für teures Geld mit einem Lebensdauer-Zertifikat versehen? Ich sehe die praktische Umsetzbarkeit nicht. Ich habe als Konsument heute eine grosse Auswahl und kann mir den Händler aussuchen, der mir eine Garantie gibt.

We have 10 times stricter limits than other countries and are therefore doing very well here.
Wir haben 10 mal strengere Grenzwerte als das Ausland und sind daher hier sehr gut unterwegs.
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
The federal government is not known as a pioneer in digital transformation. Some cantons are further along than the federal government, so the federal government can't give the cantons any guidelines either.
Der Bund ist nicht bekannt als Vorreiter bei der digitalen Transformation. Manche Kantone sind weiter als der Bund, also kann der Bund den Kantonen auch keine Vorgaben machen.
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
The platforms must assume a share of responsibility.
Die Plattformen müssen eine Mitverantwortung übernehmen.
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
Radio and television spend a lot of money on things that bring nothing to society. The important public service, e.g. the great news broadcasts of the radio, do not need so much money.
Radio und Fernsehen geben sehr viel Geld aus für Dinge, die der Gesellschaft nichts bringen. Der wichtige Service Public, zB die tollen Nachrichtensendungen des Radios, brauchen nicht so viel Geld.
Lowering the voting age to 16
Are you in favour of lowering the voting age to 16?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
I can imagine voting age 16. At the same time, I can imagine coming of age at 16. Then the question is moot anyway. A deal: You take responsibility for yourself and at the same time you get the right to vote and all other civil rights.
Ich kann mir Stimmrechtsalter 16 vorstellen. Ich kann mir gleichzeitig vorstellen, dass man mit 16 Jahren volljährig wird. Dann ist die Frage ohnehin hinfällig. Ein Deal: Man übernimmt für sich selber die Verantwortung und erhält gleichzeitig das Wahlrecht und alle anderen Bürgerrechte.
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
I do not believe that this would strengthen the people's rights and democracy. It would slow down political action at the federal level even more.
Ich glaube nicht, dass dies die Volksrechte und die Demokratie stärken würde. Das würde das politische Handeln auf Bundesebene noch stärker verlangsamen.
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 absolute number is less important than the functional and operational capability
Die absolute Zahl ist weniger wichtig als die Funktions- und Einsatzfähigkeit
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
Since my time as a recruit, I have been of the opinion that Switzerland should be part of NATO. This is the best way to protect our freedom. Switzerland's defense would only work in conjunction with NATO.
Seit meiner Zeit als Rekrut bin ich der Meinung, die Schweiz sollte Teil der NATO sein. So können wir unsere Freiheit am besten schützen. Die Verteidigung der Schweiz würde nur im Verbund mit der Nato funktionieren.
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 |

Privacy is to be weighted highly and an automatism is also not necessary. In the case of a crime, an analysis of data should be possible.

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
In my view, the Schengen Agreement is a success story. If we want to control more again, we will be controlled more again. Do we want this?
Das Schengen-Abkommen ist aus meiner Sicht eine Erfolgsgeschichte. Wenn wir wieder mehr kontrollieren wollen, werden wir auch wieder mehr kontrolliert. Wollen wir dies?
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
I am in favor of the framework agreement so that day-to-day business with the EU can function smoothly. EU accession is not an issue for me.
Ich bin für das Rahmenabkommen, damit das Tagesgeschäft mit der EU problemlos funktioniert. Ein EU-Beitritt ist für mich kein Thema.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Yes, this would be an important element in foreign trade, which would strengthen us vis-à-vis the EU.
Ja, das wäre ein wichtiges Element im Aussenhandel, der uns gegenüber der EU stärken würde.
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
Certain standards are okay, but the rejected corporate responsibility initiative would have been a pure bureaucracy monster that would not have helped anyone.
Gewisse Standards sind okay, aber die abgelehnte Konzernverantwortungsinitiative wäre ein reines Bürokratiemonster gewesen, das niemandem geholfen hätte.
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
Switzerland should continue to negotiate the framework agreement with the EU swiftly and conclude it soon. Termination of existing agreements would be enormously damaging.
Die Schweiz soll das Rahmenabkommen mit der EU zügig weiter verhandeln und bald abschliessen. Eine Kündigung von bestehenden Abkommen wäre enorm schädlich.
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]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Switzerland should give up military neutrality and join NATO. We are being bombarded with hacking attacks from the east on a daily basis anyway. It's just another form of warfare. It annoys me that this is being talked down. Neutrality is not an end in itself. Back when our neighbors were at war with each other, neutrality was useful. Today, neutrality is absurd. Neutrality no longer works and even harms us.
Die Schweiz soll die militärische Neutralität aufgeben und in die Nato eintreten. Wir werden aus dem Osten ohnehin täglich mit Hackerangriffen eingedeckt. Das ist bloss eine andere Art der Kriegführung. Es ärgert mich, dass dies kleingeredet wird. Neutralität ist kein Selbstzweck. Damals, als unsere Nachbarn miteinander Krieg führten, war Neutralität nützlich. Heute ist Neutralität absurd. Neutralität funktioniert nicht mehr und schadet uns sogar.

The question is posed too abstractly: The question should be, "Am I in favor of greater environmental protection, even if it means leaving my comfort zone more often or paying more?" Many resources are overused. For example, we need to learn again to leave certain landscapes to nature. In my opinion, economic growth per se is not harmful. A strong economy is innovative and masters the challenges of the circular economy and climate change.
Die Frage ist zu abstrakt gestellt: Die Frage müsste lauten: "Bin ich für einen grösseren Umweltschutz, auch wenn ich dafür meine Komfortzone öfter verlassen oder mehr bezahlen muss?" Viele Ressourcen werden übernutzt. Wir müssen zum Beispiel wieder lernen, gewisse Landschaften wieder der Natur zu überlassen. Meiner Meinung nach ist Wirtschaftswachstum per se nicht schädlich. Eine starke Wirtschaft ist innovativ und meistert die Herausforderungen der Kreislaufwirtschaft und des Klimawandels.
