Ungefähr 27% der Schweizbevölkerung bestehen aus ausländischen Bewohnern, deren die demografische Bevölkerung in Richtung Alter der höchsten Nettosteuer-Kontributor-Altersgruppe (Mitte der Karriere) stark gewichtet ist.
Keiner dieser ausländischen Bewohner hat das Wahlrecht in der Schweiz (daher entrechtet), weshalb sie wahrscheinlich zunehmend der Strafpolitik ausgesetzt sind, die anscheinend die maximale Ernte aus ihren Bemühungen, nicht den Bedürftigen zu geben, die wohlhabendsten Generation in der Geschichte des Landes mit zusätzlichen Geschenken zu überschütten.
Ich spreche von dem 13. Monatsgehalt für Rentner. Die altersunabhängigen Krankenversicherungsprämien, die in diesem Jahr erneut erheblich zugenommen haben (an einigen Stellen zweistellig).
Wie in vielen anderen Ländern in Europa ist die allgemeine Stimmung gegen ausländische Arbeitnehmer unter denjenigen, die oft von dieser Einwanderung am meisten profitieren, oft sehr negativ. "Sie nehmen unsere Jobs. Sie treiben die Immobilienpreise hoch. Sie verändern die Dinge usw.".
Im Gegenteil, Sie hören wenig darüber, wie "Sie finanzieren unser Wohlfahrtssystem. Sie subventionieren unsere Gesundheitsversorgung und unsere Renten. Sie bevölkern unsere produktive Wirtschaft. Sie retten uns vor den Folgen des Zusammenbruchs der Bevölkerung usw.".
Es ist eindeutig ein sehr bewusster Handel zwischen arbeitenden ausländischen Bewohnern und pensionierten/wirtschaftlich inaktiven Schweizer Staatsangehörigen, was offensichtlich vollständig einvernehmlich und in den meisten Fällen genossen ist (sonst würde es einen Exodus von Vertretern beider Gegenparteien geben).
Aber an welchem Punkt wird dies anscheinend sehr einseitig, unerbittliche Steuerernte entrechteter Ausländer zu viel? Ich sehe diese Dynamik nur "Verschlechterung" Wenn sich die Demografie weiter in das Alter verlagert. Ich sehe keine Wahländerungen, die es ermöglichen, dass B/C -Erlaubnis den Hodlern ermöglicht, bald zu wählen.

Anyone who can’t see how Switzerland benefits hugely from immigration is either biased or plain stupid
6 years ago it was that.
At some point shit will hit the fan. What you are saying here is true. And most people are just not aware of the economics of this country. Or in general.
Are you Swiss? Yes-> you can vote. No-> you can not vote. Anything else is wrong.

My opinion as a foreigner:
Permit holders will never get the vote – it’s too conservative here to change that.
The answer you will most likely get from the Swiss is – if you don’t like it, leave.
At the end of the day, even if my taxes went up I’d still be better off financially by staying here than going back to where I came from.
Immigrants are an easy target for blame on a country’s issues – see the USA, UK and Germany.
I’m all for more residents having voting power, I’m also certain this wouldn’t change anything to what you are describing.
Immigration isn’t equal to immigration. Not all immigrants are as profitable for switzerland as your graph shows
Disenfranchised yes, but most of them chose so. Most of the German and European Expats could become Swiss, but many don’t want to. I applied as soon as I was legally allowed to.
This is not a new ‚issue‘. Every country has this and this has been a topic of debate since historiographically whenever globalization started.
it is clear that Switzerland (as a system) benefits from controlled immigration for the simple reason that if it was otherwise , immigration would have been much more limited. And I am not talking about the recent phase (since 15 years) with the easier permits for EU-citizens but also for the status before, where it was still possible, to obtain a permit.
However if we want to be a bit objective, you have 2 major flaws in your whole arguments.
First of all, about the right to vote. Anyone can apply for citizenship after living here for 10 years (as long as they fulfill some pretty basic requirements). This is not the UAE where you will never ever get citizenship. So after this mark, people are not foreigners.
Secondly, someone could make an argument, that the taxes paid by previous generations, financed the infrastructure which we use today, so at the end it’s a win win for both ‚generations‘. The same way that taxes paid today also build infrastructure for future generations.
I often have the feeling that the purpose of posts like yours („they owe us“) is just to trigger/provoke people instead of generate some fruitful discussion.
Anyway just as a disclaimer, I am not Swiss.
As an immigrant, yes I love paying the 13th AHV for current pensioners and that I was not allowed to vote on it :)!
But in Switzerland, you contribute to your own pension from what I know. So you aren’t bankrolled by other people’s taxes unless you work for the government.
I could be wrong or misunderstanding something here though.
I am a foreigner here and while voting would be nice, I understand the idea of working towards it through naturalization. Honestly, much better to have it like that than to risk having issues like in Germany or Swedistan.
Why are you here if you are disenfranchised? There has to be something that is better to make you stay and maybe that thing is like that because the Swiss don’t let anyone vote without integrating first.
