|---|---|---|---|
Health insurance premiums
Should the federal government allocate more funding for health insurance premium subsidies?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Health insurance premium reductions are symptom control; it would be much more important to put the brakes on or reduce cost growth significantly and permanently. the middle class in particular suffers from high health insurance premiums, but does not benefit from premium reductions.
Krankenkassen-Prämienverbilligungen stellen Symptombekämpfung dar, wesentlich wichtiger wäre eine signifikante und dauerhafte Bremsung oder Reduktion des Kostenwachstums. insbesondere der Mittelstand leidet unter den hohen Krankenkassenprämien, kommt aber nicht in den Genuss von Prämienverbilligungen.

| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
But only under restrictive conditions, e.g. that no local workers with similar qualifications are available (also older workers Ü50+ !). In addition, similar concepts as in USA, Australia or Canada (Greencard or similar) would have to be applied for these workers.
Aber nur unter restriktiven Bedingungen, z.B. dass keine lokalen Arbeitskräfte mit ähnlichen Qualifikationen verfügbar sind (auch ältere Arbeitnehmer Ü50+ !). Zudem müssten ähnliche Konzepte wie in USA, Australien oder Kanada (Greencard o.ä.) für diese Arbeitskräfte angewandt werden.

Ausnutzungsziffer zur Förderung von verdichtetem Bau befürworte ich, Reduktion von Lärmschutzvorschriften hingegen nicht (Ruhe und Stille ist zentral für die körperliche Erholung).

Should Switzerland ban the registration of new passenger cars with internal combustion engines starting in 2035?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
It doesn't matter if Switzerland bans combustion engines, because there will hardly be any more combustion engines to buy in Switzerland anyway, if the EU will introduce this ban.
Ist zwar egal, ob die Schweiz Verbrennungsmotoren verbietet, da es eh kaum mehr Verbrenner in der Schweiz zu kaufen geben wird, falls die EU dieses Verbot einführen wird.
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
There will also have to be bids such as compulsory electricity generation for buildings (as part of new construction or renovation). Against this, it is always argued that this is an encroachment on the freedom of property, with the decades-long obligation to create shelters in new buildings, whose additional costs could never be amortized, unlike photovoltaic modules, this was never an issue !
Es wird auch Gebote wie zum Beispiel Stromerzeugungspflicht bei Gebäuden geben müssen (im Rahmen von Neubauten oder Sanierungen). Dagegen wird immer argumentiert, es handle sich dabei um einen Eingriff in die Eigentumsfreiheit, bei der jahrzehntelangen Pflicht zur Erstellung von Schutzräumen bei Neubauten, deren Mehrkosten im Gegensatz zu Photovoltaikmodulen nie amortisiert werden konnten, war dies nie ein Thema !

| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The dithering of the Federal Council and parts of parliament in connection with the re-export of weapons to European states in the Ukraine war is shameful. This amounts to indirect support for Putin's regime in Russia. At the same time, Switzerland is exporting weapons to Saudi Arabia, which is heavily involved in the civil war in Yemen, to the tune of several hundred million francs.
Das Zaudern des Bundesrates und Teilen des Parlaments im Zusammenhang mit der Wiederausfuhr von Waffen an europäische Staaten im Ukrainekrieg ist beschämend. Dies kommt einer indirekten Unterstützung von Putins Regime in Russland gleich. Gleichzeitig exportiert die Schweiz Waffen nach Saudi-Arabien, das im Bürgerkrieg von Jemen stark engagiert ist, in der Höhe von mehreren Hundert Millionen Franken.

|---|---|---|---|
Comment
A new edition of the Corporate Responsibility Initiative, which was accepted by the people (but not by the cantons), is urgently needed after the introduction of stricter regulations in this area in the EU. This was also promised by BR Karin Keller-Sutter in the referendum campaign !
Eine Neuauflage der Konzernverantwortungsinitiative, die vom Volk angenommen wurde (nicht aber von den Ständen) ist nach der Einführung von strengeren Vorschriften in diesem Bereich in der EU dringend geboten. Dies wurde ja auch von BR Karin Keller-Sutter im Abstimmungskampf so versprochen !

In cases of a war of aggression in violation of international law (e.g. the attack on Ukraine), the re-export of Swiss weapons to other states should be permitted (see question above).
In Fällen eines völkerrechtswidrigen Angriffskrieges (z.B. der Angriff auf die Ukraine) soll die Wiederausfuhr von Schweizer Waffen in andere Staaten erlaubt sein (siehe Frage weiter oben).

Comment
Rather, the aim should be to make the retirement age more flexible. In addition, if the retirement age were to be increased, accompanying measures would have to be taken to reduce unemployment among the over-50s. Despite the shortage of skilled workers, it is difficult for this age group to find a job. Solutions for the high pension fund contributions would have to be found here.
Es sollte eher eine Flexibilisierung des Rentenalters angestrebt werden. Zudem müssten bei einer allfälligen Erhöhung flankierende Massnahmen für eine Verminderung der Arbeitslosigkeit von Ü50+ ergriffen werden. Trotz Fachkräftemangel ist es für diese Altersgruppe schwierig eine Stelle zu finden. Lösungen für die hohen Pensionskassenbeiträge müssten hier gefunden werden.
