Heiratsstrafen müssen abgeschafft werden, sonst heiratet niemand mehr.

Should compulsory vaccination of children be introduced based on the Swiss vaccination plan?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

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
The federal government should make recommendations, but not arbitrarily close entire industries. The most absurd was the closure of the outdoor tennis facilities.
Der Bund soll Empfehlungen aussprechen, aber nicht willkürlich ganze Branchen schliessen. Das absurdestes war die Schliessung der Freilufttennisanlagen.
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)?

|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Central planning rarely works well.

Kinder sollen früh lernen, mit Vielfalt positiv umzugehen.
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
The requirement for the Matura in general should be increased. Switzerland does not need more university graduates, but more skilled workers.
Die Anforderung an die Matura allgemein sollte erhöht werden. Die Schweiz benötigt nicht mehr Uni-Abgänge, sondern mehr Fachkräfte.
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
Switzerland should remain a meritocracy. The birth luck of some, must be compensated by the support of the less advantaged.
Die Schweiz soll eine Meritokratie bleiben. Das Geburtsglück der einen, muss durch die Unterstützung der weniger Bevorteilten ausgeglichen 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
What counts is not how long someone has lived in Switzerland, but how well they have integrated.
Es zählt nicht wie lange jemand in der Schweiz wohnt, sondern wie gut er sich integriert hat .
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
We should be able to close our demand gaps for the benefit of the common good.
Wir sollten unsere Nachfragelücken zu Gunsten des Allgemeinwohls schliessen können.
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
This is asylum law turned into the opposite. However, we should greatly accelerate the processing and insist on the deportation of those rejected.
Das ist Asylrecht in das Gegenteil verkehrt. Wir sollten aber die Abwicklung stark beschleunigen und auf die Ausschaffung der Abgelehnten bestehen.
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?

Society & ethics
Legalize cannabis use
Should cannabis use be legalized? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Any ban encourages crime. Taxation to fund educational advertising makes more sense.
Jedes Verbot fördert die Kriminalität. Besteuerung zur Finanzierung von aufklärende Werbung machen mehr Sinn.
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 |

It affects few people, but they suffer incredibly from the binary classification compulsion.

A couple is a couple.
Ein Paar ist ein Paar.
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
Redistribution via a high tax base is Switzerland's social kit. We must preserve this kit and not let it erode through tax cuts.
Umverteilung über ein hohes Steuersubstrat ist der soziale Kit der Schweiz. Diesen Kit müssen wir erhalten und nicht durch Steuersenkungen erodieren lassen.

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
Not only is this an arbitrary unequal treatment, but it would also lead to a mass exodus of wealthy people who pay the bulk of taxes through income tax and wealth tax. The law is the grossest wealth killer imaginable.
Nicht nur ist das eine willkürliche Ungleichbehandlung, es würde auch zu einem Massenexodus von Vermögenden kommen, welche über die Einkommenssteuer und die Vermögenssteuer den Grossteil der Steuern zahlen. Das Gesetz ist der gröbste Wohlstandskiller vorstellbar.
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 social kit requires a redistribution from rich to poor, this is true for individuals as well as for the different areas of Switzerland.
Der soziale Kit bedarf einer Umverteilung von Reich zu Arm, das gilt sowohl für die Individuen als auch für die verschiedenen Gebiete der Schweiz.
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
Everyone who works should earn enough to afford a good life. Of course, this will destroy many jobs. At the same time, it will increase creativity and thus prosperity.
Jeder der arbeitet soll genügend verdienen, um sich ein gutes Leben zu leisten. Natürlich wird das viele Stellen vernichten. Gleichzeitig erhöht es die Kreativität und damit den Wohlstand.
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
Banks should no longer be allowed to speculate with savers' money.
Banken sollen nicht mehr mit dem Geld der Sparer spekulieren dürfen.
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 production and distribution are among the core tasks of the state. This is the only way to ensure efficiency and price stability.
Stromherstellung und Verteilung gehören zu den Kernaufgaben des Staates. Nur so kann Effizient und Preisstabilität gesichert werden.
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
The housing shortage and also the exorbitant rent prices can only be reduced by relaxing the regulations.
Die Wohnungsnot und auch die exorbitanten Mietpreise können nur über eine Lockerung der Vorschriften gesenkt werden.
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
The government's regulatory frenzy must be curtailed. The market already recognizes that well-mixed teams perform better. The balance will best create itself.
Die staatliche Regulierungswut ist zu beschränken. Der Markt anerkennt heute schon, dass gut durchmischte Teams bessere Leistungen erbringen. Das Gleichgewicht wird sich von selbst am besten erstellen.
Energy & transport
Restructure heavily trafficked sections of the highway
Should busy sections of highways be widened?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
The cost of congestion is exorbitant and in the future electric vehicles will not pollute the environment either.
Die Kosten von Stau sind exorbitant und in Zukunft belasten Elektrofahrzeuge auch nicht mehr die Umwelt.
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
Absolutely. It makes no sense that we continue to accept fine dust and noise emitting vehicles.
Unbedingt. Es macht keinen Sinn, dass wir weiterhin Feinstaub und Lärm emittierende Fahrzeuge akzeptieren.
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
Externalization of costs via incentive taxes are certainly the most suitable means of unleashing the creativity of the economy and thus solving the problem most quickly. Unfortunately, politicians lack the courage and unity to adopt groundbreaking measures here. As a stopgap measure, we can therefore resort to bans, e.g. on pesticides or gasoline engines.
Die Externalisierung der Kosten über Lenkungsabgaben sind sicher das am besten geeignete Mittel, die Kreativität der Wirtschaft zu entfesseln und damit das Problem am schnellsten zu lösen. Leider fehlt es der Politik an Mut und Geschlossenheit, hier wegweisende Massnahmen zu beschliessen. Als Notbehelf kann daher auch zu Verboten gegriffen werden, z.B. von Pestiziden oder Benzinmotoren.
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
We cannot have both maximum landscape protection and energy autonomy. But climate protection demands the second, so we have to make concessions on the first.
Wir können nicht Beides haben, maximalen Landschaftsschutz und Energieautonomie. Der Klimaschutz verlangt aber das Zweite, als müssen beim Ersten Abstriche gemacht werden.
Authorize the construction of new nuclear power plants
Should the construction of new nuclear power plants in Switzerland be allowed again?

|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Only if such are safe and cheap.

Ensure a comprehensive range of public services
Should the state guarantee a comprehensive public service offering also in rural regions?

|---|---|---|---|
Comment
It is necessary to prevent urbanization.
Es gilt die Verstädterung zu verhindern.
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
That would be the reversal of all market logic and drive energy-intensive industry out of the country with all the associated losses of prosperity.
Das wäre die Umkehrung jeder Marktlogik und energieintensive Industrie aus dem Lande vertreiben mit allen damit einhergehenden Wohlstandsverlusten.
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
Switzerland is too densely populated to harbor many predators.
Die Schweiz ist zu dicht besiedelt, um viele Raubtiere zu beherbergen.
Direct payments for farms
Should direct payments only be granted to farmers with proof of ecological performance?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Pesticides poison our soil, our water, our food and ultimately US. The follow-up costs of pesticides are incomparably high, so that every subsidized reduction pays off 5-10 times.
Pestizide vergiften unseren Boden, unseres Wasser, unsere Lebensmittel und schlussendlich UNS. Die Folgekosten von Pestiziden sind unvergleichlich hoch, so dass jede subventionierte Reduktion sich 5-10 fach ausbezahlt.
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
Feeding farm animals with imported feed turns Switzerland into a sinkhole. As long as the farm animals only eat what grows here, the nitrate balance remains in equilibrium. Therefore, they should do it right out in the open.
Nutztiere mit importiertem Futter zu ernähren, verwandelt die Schweiz in ein Güllen Loch. Solange die Nutztiere nur das Essen, was hier wächst, bleibt der Nitrathaushalt im Gleichgewicht. Daher sollen sie das gleich im Freien machen.
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
This is in line with long-term UN goals.
Das entspricht den langfristigen UNO-Zielen.
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
Bans are always a stopgap solution. At this point, I prefer an incentive tax that finances collection, recycling and cleanup.
Verbote sind immer eine Notlösung. An dieser Stelle bevorzuge ich eine Lenkungsabgabe, mit der man das Einsammeln, Recycling und die Säuberung finanziert.
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
An incentive tax on the manufacturer would be more effective. This decreases with the useful life of the device and is converted into a bonus if the device has a particularly long useful life.
Eine Lenkungsabgabe beim Hersteller wäre zielführender. Diese nimmt ab mit der Nutzungsdauer des Gerätes und wandelt sich in einen Bonus ab einer besonders langen Nutzungsdauer.
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
Higher information transmission rates are key to the deployment of emission-reducing technologies, whether in agriculture, buildings, manufacturing, etc.
Höhere Informationsübertragungsraten sind der Schlüssel zum Einsatz von emissionsreduzierenden Technologien, sei es in der Landwirtschaft, in Gebäuden, Produktion etc.
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
Standards are the only way to increase efficiency, especially in healthcare.
Nur über Standards kann die Effizienz gesteigert werden, vor allem im Gesundheitswesen.
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 regulatory frenzy here creates more costs than benefits.
Die Regulierungswut schafft hier mehr Kosten als Nutzen.
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
A well-financed media landscape is essential for informing the population. This is no longer possible via advertising thanks to Google, Youtube and Tiktok.
Eine gut finanzierte Medienlandschaft ist essentiell für die Information der Bevölkerung. Dies ist über Werbung dank Google, Youtube und Tiktok nicht mehr möglich.
Lowering the voting age to 16
Are you in favour of lowering the voting age to 16?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |

Younger people are being robbed by older people through social security. We must give them the voice to fight back.

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 |

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 army's core must not be enlarged but reduced. A professionalization of the army would be more purposeful.
Der Armeeleerlauf muss nicht vergrössert sondern verkleinert werden. Eine Professionalisierung der Armee wäre zielführender.
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
Cooperation in defense makes sense. Switzerland is not an island
Zusammenarbeit in der Verteidigung macht Sinn. Die Schweiz ist keine Insel
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
The factual situation is clear. Russia is the aggressor and should not benefit from Switzerland's neutrality.
Die Sachlage ist eindeutig. Russland ist der Aggressor und soll nicht von der Neutralität der Schweiz profitieren.
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
In Switzerland, it is unlikely that the state will misuse such information. At the same time, security could be increased very efficiently.
In der Schweiz ist es unwahrscheinlich, dass der Staat solche Informationen missbraucht. Gleichzeitig könnte die Sicherheit sehr effizient erhöht werden.

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
Unbridled immigration cannot continue like this. Housing shortages and urban sprawl are the consequences. We have to decide how densely we want to live in Switzerland. We must be able to make this decision ourselves.
Die ungezügelte Einwanderung kann so nicht weiter gehen. Wohnungsnot und Zersiedlung sind die Folgen. Wir müssen uns entscheiden, wie dicht möchten wir in der Schweiz leben. Diesen Entscheid müssen wir selber machen können.
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 |

In principle, the hurdle of being innocently hit by state security measures is high. Of course, there are also borderline cases in demonstrations, racial profiling and everyday fraud cases.

The concept of freedom must be restricted to the effect that we are not free to damage the environment arbitrarily to the disadvantage of all, i.e. today's externalized costs must in future be covered to a much greater extent by the individual polluter.
