| 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
Above all, the Health Insurance Act prevents genuine competition between insurance companies. With the abolition of the state obligation and the prescribed benefits catalog, real competition can arise again. The insured person has a greater choice of affordable offers. For example, no one should be obliged to take out insurance for homeopathy or other alternative methods if this is not desired.
Das Krankenversicherungsgesetz verhindert vor allem den echten Wettbewerb zwischen den Versicherungen. Mit dem Wegfall des staatlichen Obligatoriums und dem vorgeschriebenen Leistungskatalog kann wieder echter Wettbewerb entstehen. Die versicherte Person hat eine grössere Auswahl an bezahlbaren Angeboten. Beispielsweise sollte niemand verpflichtet sein, Homöopathie oder andere alternative Methoden versichern zu lassen, wenn das nicht gewünscht ist.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
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?

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

|---|---|---|---|
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
A thoroughly sympathetic idea. But everyone suffers from it, because the state can't even manage to show decent learning progress for "normal" students. There needs to be more freedom of choice in education for parents and less forced state education.
Eine durchaus sympatische Idee. Nur leiden darunter alle, da der Staat es nicht einmal fertig bringt bei "normalen" Schülern anständige Lernfortschritte vorzuweisen. Es braucht mehr Wahlfreiheit in der Bildung für Eltern und weniger staatliche Zwangsbeschulung.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|

|---|---|---|---|
Introdurre un terzo sesso ufficiale
Should a third official gender be introduced alongside "female" and "male"?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
No gender should be recorded at all. The state should not care about gender. Thus, no discrimination is possible, such as compulsory military service.
Es soll gar kein Geschlecht erfasst werden. Der Staat soll sich nicht um das Geschlecht kümmern. So ist auch keine Diskriminierung möglich, wie bspw. Wehrpflicht.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Equality yes, egalitarianism no. Otherwise the next state egalitarian authority will come.

|---|---|---|---|
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
Regulations are usually used by large corporations to eliminate small, innovative competition and thus rarely benefit consumers.
Regulierungen werden von den Grosskonzernen meist dazu benutzt, um kleine, innovative Konkurrenz auszuschalten und bringen so dem Konsumenten selten einen Vorteil.
Liberalizzare completamente il mercato dell'elettricità
Should private households be free to choose their electricity supplier (complete liberalization of the electricity market)?

Should Switzerland ban the registration of new passenger cars with internal combustion engines starting in 2035?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
As a convinced electric car driver, I am convinced by the technology. But an electric car is not always the right choice. Everyone should be able to decide this for themselves. Technology bans always prevent progress.
Als überzeugter Elektroauto-Fahrer, bin ich von der Technologie überzeugt. Aber nicht immer ist ein Elektroauto die richtige Wahl. Jeder soll dies selbst entscheiden können. Technologieverbote verhindern immer den Vorschritt.

Introduce progressive electricity tariffs

Through a complete and genuine privatization of the electricity market, such offers would certainly be possible if desired by the customers.
Durch eine vollständige und echte Privatisierung des Strommarktes, wären solche Angebote sicher möglich, wenn durch die Kunden gewünscht.

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
Standards in Switzerland are already high, the market regulates this better than the state. See offers for eggs. No sooner has chick-killing become a topic of discussion than there are already corresponding offers for eggs without chick-killing.
Die Standards in der Schweiz sind bereits hoch, der Markt regelt dies besser als der Staat. Siehe Angebote bei Eiern. Kaum wurde das Kükentöten thematisiert, gibt es schon entsprechende Angebote für Eier ohne Kükentöten.

|---|---|---|---|
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
Transparency and regulation sound good, but are used by many large companies to eliminate small, innovative competitors through additional administrative effort. Who determines what disinformation is? The Ministry of Truth? Orwell sends his regards.
Transparenz und Regulierung klingt gut, wird aber von vielen Grossunternehmen dazu benutzt, um durch zusätzlichen administrativen Aufwand die kleine, innovative Konkurrenz auszuschalten. Wer bestimmt was Desinformation ist? Das Ministerium für Wahrheit? Orwell lässt grüssen.

Comment
The buyer of a good becomes the owner of the good and should be able to decide freely about his ownership - but also bear 100% responsibility for it.
Der Käufer einer Ware wird Eigentümer der Ware und soll über sein Eigentum selbst frei entscheiden können - aber auch zu 100% die Verantwortung dafür tragen.

Pension provision should be private, as should when and if and how someone wants to stop working. However, the federal government should not be allowed to change the retirement age retroactively.
Vorsorge sollte privat sein, ebenso wann und ob und wie jemand aufhören möchte zu arbeiten. Allerdings sollte es dem Bund nicht gestattet sein, das Rentenalter Rentenalter rückwirkend zu ändern.
