Comment
It makes no sense to have them arrive and relocate them during the process. Instead, I am open to setting up hotspots and registration centers directly in North African countries to prevent refugees from the inhumane and deadly Mediterranean barge trade. Anyone must admit that it is not normal for both refugees and economic migrants to arrive in overcrowded boats and put their lives at risk. European countries, Switzerland and the Frontex program should work together to establish such centers.
Non ha senso farli arrivare e trasferirli durante la procedura. Sono invece aperto a creare hotspot e centri di registrazione direttamente nei paesi del Nordafrica per evitare a rifugiati la tratta inumana e mortale del Mediterraneo in barcone. Chiunque deve ammettere che non è normale che sia rifugiati che migranti economici arrivino in barche strapiene e metter a rischio la propria vita. I paesi europei, la Svizzera e il programma Frontex dovrebbero collaborare per realizzare tali centri.

In principle I am in favor of it. I find in any case that the current system works sufficiently through the "Exit" association.
In principio sono a favore. Trovo in ogni caso che il sistema attuale funzioni a sufficienza, tramite l'associazione "Exit".
Introdurre un terzo sesso ufficiale
Should a third official gender be introduced alongside "female" and "male"?

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
Ideally we would all be inclined to reduce taxes. The fact is that we have to face reality (and the federal budget): we cannot afford it at the moment.
Idealmente tutti saremmo propensi a ridurre le tasse. Il fatto è che bisogna guardare in faccia la realtà (e il budget federale): non possiamo permettercelo al momento.

|---|---|---|---|
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
One should not only look at it from the perspective of "strong" and "weak": certain cantons take advantage of the system--see low taxation in Zug and other small cantons, or benefit from geographical and urbanization advantages of the plateau that my canton (Ticino) does not have the same access to. Or the issue of cross-border commuters. So yes, I am against "Free-riding" by certain cantons.
Non bisogna solo vederlo in ottica di "forti" e "deboli": certi cantoni approfittano del sistema - vedasi tassazione bassa a Zugo e altri piccoli cantoni, oppure beneficiano di vantaggi geografici e di urbanizzazione dell'altipiano a cui il mio cantone (Ticino) non ha lo stesso accesso. O la questione dei Frontalieri. Quindi si, sono contro al "Free-riding" da parte di certi cantoni.
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
We need to fight against wage dumping: Without a minimum wage, only those who are not residents of Switzerland (border crossers) can afford to be paid so little. Especially for young families, it is difficult to live on such a wage.
Bisogna lottare contro il dumping salariale: Senza un salario minimo, solo chi non è residente in Svizzera (frontalieri) può permettersi di essere pagato così poco. Soprattutto per le giovani famiglie, è difficile vivere con un tale salario.

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
Complex question: I would find it more logical for the market to make electric and hybrid cars more attractive, not an imposition. It would be up to the car companies to produce more affordable cars, to attract new consumers.
Domanda complessa: troverei che sia più logico sia il mercato a rendere più attrattive le auto elettriche ed ibride, non un'imposizione. Starebbe alle compagnie automobilistiche produrre auto più convenienti, per attrarre nuovi consumatori.
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 |

Both types of measures are to be considered, with preference clearly given to incentives and agreements.
Entrambi i tipi di misure sono da tenere in considerazione, con preferenza chiaramente per incentivi e accordi.

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
Ideally, yes. I am just afraid that the price of Swiss meat and eggs for consumers, would increase as a result of fewer animals being raised. In that case, Swiss meat and eggs and milk would cost too much for the average consumer (and as a student I say: they are already quite expensive products), and even more of these foreign-sourced products would be purchased .
Idealmente, si. Ho giusto paura che il prezzo di carne e uova svizzere per i consumatori, aumenti in conseguenza ad un minor numero di animali allevabili. In tal caso, le carni e uova e latte svizzero costerebbero troppo per il consumatore medio (e da studente dico: sono prodotti già piuttosto cari), e si acquisterebbero ancora più di questi prodotti di provenienza straniera .

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
Priority is also to fight against microplastics that we disperse into the water. We risk serious consequences on our health, which are not yet studied enough. We need to rethink alternatives to plastic-not only for the climate, but also for us.
Priorità è lottare anche contro le microplastiche che disperdiamo nell'acqua. Rischiamo conseguenze gravi sulla nostra salute, che non sono ancora abbastanza studiati. Bisogna ripensare ad alternative alla plastica - non solo per il clima, ma anche per noi.

| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Only if more tasks would justify it (e.g., more cooperation and military missions abroad with NATO and the EU). In any case, I consider that in the future we will need a more professional army.
Solo se maggiori compiti lo giustificassero (ad esempio, maggiori collaborazioni e missioni militari all'estero con NATO e UE). In ogni caso, considero che nel futuro avremo bisogno di un esercito più professionale.

Only if environmental standards were comparable. I would prefer to focus on agricultural partners with high environmental standards.

Comment
This is not the case in Switzerland at the moment, but in other countries, unfortunately, one cannot trust one's state. Violations of Human Rights are the norm, and as a person who believes in Human Rights and the dignity of the individual, I am convinced that it is necessary to "guard the guards," and maintain a healthy and critical civil society.
In Svizzera non è il caso al momento, ma in altri paesi purtroppo non ci si può fidare del proprio stato. Le violazioni dei Diritti Umani sono la norma, e in quanto persona che crede nei Diritti Umani e nella dignità dell'individuo, sono convinto che sia necessario "sorvegliare i sorveglianti", e mantenere una sana e critica società civile.

it is important for all parents to devote time and attention to their children, but it is not for me to impose a way of running a family.

I very much agree, but it does not mean that the risks should be ignored. On the contrary, it will be necessary in the immediate term to monitor the use and abuse of new technologies by foreign governments and multinational corporations.
Sono molto d'accordo, ma non vuol dire che bisogna ignorare i rischi. Anzi, bisognerà nell'immediato monitorare l'uso e abuso delle nuove tecnologie da parte di governi stranieri e multinazionali.

The two are not mutually exclusive; on the contrary! Investing in the energy and ecological transition will unlock thousands of jobs, in Switzerland and around the world (Global South-developing countries in particular)

We must continue to remain a leader in the field, to be attractive to the best brains in the world (I am thinking of universities and polytechnics in particular), and push even more innovation accordingly.
Bisogna continuare a restare un leader nel settore, per essere attrattivi per i migliori cervelli al mondo (penso alle Università e Politecnici in particolare), e spingere ancora più innovazione di conseguenza.

As someone who lives in a suburban canton: spend better. German and French-speaking Switzerland seem to me to be relatively well connected, especially the large urban centers. Instead, I would like to see more investment in suburban and peripheral regions, such as Ticino

As mentioned earlier, only if participation in multiple foreign collaboration and intervention programs (Peacekeeping missions!!; deminaggio ; multiple military observer missions). In principle, an increase in spending currently would not be justifiable.
Come detto prima, solo se partecipazione a più programmi di collaborazione e di intervento all'estero (missioni di Peacekeeping!!; deminaggio ; più missioni di osservatori militari). In linea di massima, un aumento di spese attualmente non sarebbe giustificabile.

I would prefer the opposite, but demography is destiny: the population is aging and we are having fewer children. It's a fact of life, and even with more skilled immigration we would not solve the problem - we would put it off for a generation. For strenuous jobs, we should not raise the retirement age, but keep it around 64-65.
Preferirei il contrario, ma la demografia è destino: la popolazione invecchia e facciamo meno figli. E' un dato di fatto, e anche con maggiore immigrazione qualificata non risolveremmo il problema - lo rimanderemmo di una generazione. Per i lavori faticosi non bisognerebbe innalzare l'età pensionabile, ma tenerla intorno a 64-65.
