Comment
solange Väter nicht zu einer Auszeit gezwungen werden, ist eine berufliche Gleichstellung illusorisch, da es für Arbeitnehmer immer Risikoreicher bleibt, eine Frau einzustellen. eine Angleichung (z. B. freie Aufteilung im Band 40:60% wäre meines Erachtens sinnvoll)
Further encourage the construction of social housing
Should the federal government provide more financial support for public housing construction? [BePart question]
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Ich finde es sollen Hürden abgebaut werden. Wenn genossenschaftliches Bauen & Wohnen günstiger (effizienter) ist, als Eigentum welches vermietet wird, dann soll dies gefördert werden. Direkte finanzielle Zustüpfen an Bauprojekte stehe ich da jedoch zurückhaltend gegenüber.

| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Ja, aber nur unter der absoluten Bedienung, dass auch genügend Fachkräfte (Heilpädagogen und Heilpädagoginnen) eingesetzt werden, um dem gerecht zu werden, was zur Zeit nicht der Fall ist.
Tighten the requirements for obtaining a high school diploma
Should the federal government raise the requirements for the gymnasiale matura?

Comment
Die Dauer würde ich nicht unbedingt kürzen, aber die Anforderung, welche an gewissen Orten besteht, dass die Personen in der gleichen Gemeinde bleiben müssen, ist in einem so kleinen Land wie unserem m. M. n. nicht sinnvoll.

Introdurre un terzo sesso ufficiale
Should a third official gender be introduced alongside "female" and "male"?
| No | Rather no | Rather yes | Yes |
|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Für biologisch nicht als männlich oder weiblich klassifizierbare Personen ja. Gesellschaftlich fände ich es grundsätzlich erstrebenswert, die Unterscheidung nach Geschlecht möglichst ganz los zu werden und alle gleich zu behandeln.

Ich bin grundsätzlich dafür, aber mit einer gewissen Skepsis, dass es primär sehr gut verdienenden Haushalten hilft. In der Hoffnung, dass es insbesondre gut ausgebildete Frauen/Mütter vermehrt in der Wirtschaft hält, befürworte ich dies.

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
Grundsätzlich finde ich die Erbschaftssteuer eine der gerechtesten steuern, weil niemandem etwas weggenommen wird, wofür die Person selber etwas gemacht hat. Aber nur sofern sie 1. ein angemessenes Mass hat und 2. zumindest zum Teil bestehende Steuern ersetzt.

Comment
Die Gleichheit muss nicht durch Symptombekämpfung sonder bei der Ursache angepackt werden, nämlich dem statistisch markant höheren Risiko für Arbeitgeber, dass Frauen nach Schwangerschaften ausfallen. Eltern- statt Mutterschaftsurlaub ist da einer der brennendsten Punkte.

Should busy sections of highways be widened?

|---|---|---|---|
Comment
Das führ lediglich zu mehr Stau an den Punkten, wo die zusätzlichen Spuren enden. Verlagerung des Verkehrs ist da zielführender.

Comment
Aus Ökobilanz-Sicht sind diese Verpackungen in der Schweiz, wo sie nicht auf Mülldeponien (und vie Wind in Flüssen und Meeren) landen, sonder in recht gute Quote in Kehrichtsverbrnungsanlagen mit Energierückgewinnung, nicht unsere grösste Sorge. lieber zuerst bei den grösseren Hebeln ansetzen (Heizungen, Transport, Infrastruktur, etc)

Ein nicht durch Werbung oder Privatinteresse beeinflusst/gesteuerte Medienhaus ist wichtig. Dass das in einem kleinen Land mit 4 Sprachen pro Kopf etwas mehr kostet als andernorts, ist verständlich und sinnvoll.

Comment
im Einzelfall unterstütze ich dies, ich sehe aber nicht, wie eine solche Regelung nicht eine Tür auf macht, die dann nicht wieder geschlossen werden kann, und in einem anderen Fall dann Länder/Regime unterstützt werden, die dies nicht verdient haben.

Kommt ganz auf die Definition von freier Marktwirtschaft an. in einem Raum frei von Regeln ganz und gar nicht. Aber grundsätzlich gescheit in einem solchen System wohl mehr Innovation und Fortschritt, welche den Lebensstandard der gesamten Bevölkerung anheben. Das Verhältnis von meinem Portemonnaie zu jenem meiner Nachbaren hat geringere Priorität als die Frage, ob das Leben aller unter dem Strich besser ist.

Ja, zu einem gewissen Mass um exzessive Entwicklungen zu unterbinden. Aber es soll auch sicher gestellt werden, dass der Anreiz etwas wirtschaftlich zu wagen bleibt, um Fortschritt und Innovation zu erlauben.

Idealerweise würde sich das Rentenalter als Funktion der Lebenserwartung der Gesellschaft ausdrücken, aber das ist wohl nicht praktikabel.
