“They wanted it, so let’s finance it with the one regressive tax at our disposal!”
Genius.
Poor Boomers. Let’s give them a 14th AHV to compensate for the VAT increase.
Thanks to the referendum committee for leaving the question of financing out of the refendum. Das habt ihr toll gemacht!
It’s nuts that the younger generations have to pay for the mistakes of the boomers (i.e., not having saved enough for retirement), while at the same time also having to put money aside beyond the 2nd and 3rd pillars to have a remote chance of retiring, plus the fact that the vast majority don’t own property (while the proportion of boomers who do is much higher).
Can we stop raising the one tax that mostly affects middle and lower class and just raise taxes on the wealthy?
1. Young ones don’t vote and then complain. Such a sad state of affairs.
2. Increase should have been financed by progressive tax increases in wealth(2M+ wealth) and income tax(>250k earners).
3. Need to work on issues like rent control and taxing landlords(2+ homeowners heavily) so excessive rent seeking is not a lucrative option anymore.
I swear this federal council literally hates the people who actually work in this country! And by work, I mean break a sweat and burn more than 300 calories doing their jobs every day.
It’s just strange that they won’t raise taxes where rich get their income from, like dividends, stock exchange and other banking operations.
Just one more VAT increase
