      “*Swiss billionaire Peter Spuhler, founder and owner of Stadler Rail, has threatened to leave the country if the tax becomes law. He told told Swiss daily Tagesanzeiger that his family would struggle to pay such a tax as their wealth is tied up in companies.*”

      Shame! Pay the tax or leave. You aren’t special.

      a bunch of millionaires from Norway have fled to Switzerland to avoid paying their fair share of taxes.

      I wouldn’t mind if Switzerland taxed the shit out of them, they deserve to fall between 2 chairs and have their asses bruised.

      Switzerland is a pirate cove. A country that lives off corruption and misery and whose sole existence is based on giving the worst people on earth a way to make them as rich as possible. I wish that we could embargo them (which won’t happen because most politicians have personal interests that it stays as it is)

      There isn’t a single sentence in the article that mentions what the tax should be for: The money would just be used for climate change actions. Not for other stuff. It’s not like that the money would go into the regular budget of the state.

      So, i’ll vote no on this one.

      Guess some people here won’t like it, but no, Switzerland can’t stop climate change. Even when the entire country would completely disappear over night, it would not have any impact on climate change. From the sources i checked, the emissions are around 0.1% of the total amount. With a lot of effort and money, maybe we could lower it, like to say 0.09% or 0.08% or whatever.

      But, that’s not worth it. I see the way to deal with climate change in new technologies and in preparations to deal with the consequences, not in things like the proposed CO2-taxes we already refused a few years ago.
