FOR A REAL DEMOCRACY - THE PDA'S PROGRAM
We live in a dictatorship of banks and corporations. Most people have nothing to say. Radical changes are imperative. All areas of life, including the economy, must be determined democratically.
We demand:
- The immediate termination of all negotiations on free trade agreements such as TISA. New negotiations must first be approved by Parliament
- The abolition of all electoral hurdles such as threshold clauses
- Voting rights as well as the active and passive right to vote for all people living in Switzerland from the age of 18
- Accountability and voting rights of elected executive members
- The abolition of lifelong pensions for the elected at all political levels
- Transparency and the setting of a maximum amount for election campaigns
- The introduction of co-determination in companies
- Student representatives
- A representation of interests with equal representation in the universities
- The preservation and guarantee of basic democratic rights, including the right to demonstrate
- The ban on any mass surveillance
And we will not rest …
until democracy rules everywhere and is no longer just an appearance that allows the rulers to keep their privileges.
