Die Technologieoffenheit ist ein liberales Prinzip. Unter gewissen Voraussetzungen sollen neue Kraftwerke (z.B. an den heutigen Standorten) gebaut werden dürfen.

Are you in favour of lowering the voting age to 16?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Die Schweiz soll den Reexport an westliche Demokratien nicht blockieren, solange diese über ein Exportkontrollsystem verfügen, das mit unserem vergleichbar ist. Mit einer Systemänderung, wie von der FDP vorgeschlagen, wäre das Problem gelöst.
