One interesting point for me is that, IMHO, the propaganda on the „no“ side wad _abysmal_.

The counter arguments are awful and they are presented awfully and not even in such high quantity as you would expect.

I think it has a good chance of passing just because of that.

And then political shitf***y will begin with „we don’t know how to turn this into law!“, which is not good for the basis of democracy…

I agree, but it's also a lot easier to promise a silver bullet to everything than to propose improvements to the actual, hard problems.

Yes infrastructure are strained, but it's not like nothing is being done. It's just that it take decades, and will be too little, too late.

Same thing with housing. Every one is saying we need to make the procedures more efficient, but when it comes time to actually makes changes, there's no consensus to drop anything.

They could have done better, but it would have been very easy to make nothing but empty promises. I prefer they didn't.

Although I thought weird that SVP brought the "we will need to increase retirement age" themselves. It's actually pretty likely, but sounds like a massive own goal so close to the vote given how unpopular it is.

I'm sure blaming the "propaganda" will help you about as much as it helps Americans after voting for their anti immigration party nonsense.
