民调预测表明 瑞士拒绝基本收入(在线收听) |
BBC News – Projections from a referendum in Switzerland suggest voters have rejected a plan to introduce a guaranteed basic income for all. BBC新闻- 瑞士公投的预测表明, 投票者否决了推行人人享有有保障的基本收入的计划。
The proposal had called for adults to be paid an unconditional monthly income, whether they worked or not.
该提案呼吁支付给成人无条件的月收入,无论他们工作与否。
Supporters said since work was increasingly automated, fewer jobs were available for workers. Switzerland is the first country to hold such a vote.
支持者说,因为工作日益自动化,工人能应聘的岗位越来越少。瑞士是第一个举行这种投票的国家。
No figure for the basic income had been set, but those behind the proposal suggested a monthly income of 2,500 Swiss francs (£1,755; $2,555) for adults and SFr625 for each child, reflecting the high cost of living in Switzerland. It is not clear how it would affect people on higher salaries.
基本收入的数字并未确定,但支持提案的人提议每月支付成人2500瑞郎(合1755英镑;2555美元),每个儿童625瑞郎,反映了瑞士的高生活成本。不清楚这会对高薪人群带来怎样的影响。
There was little support among Swiss politicians for the idea and not a single parliamentary party has come out in favour, but the proposal gathered more than 100,000 signatures and was therefore put to the vote under the Swiss popular initiative system.
瑞士政界对此提议和者甚寡,没有一个议会党派出面赞成,但提案征集到超过10万个签名,因此在瑞士的全民创制体制下被付诸表决。
Critics of the measure say that disconnecting the link between work done and money earned would be bad for society.
批评这个措施的人说,割断干多少活挣多少钱之间的联系,对社会不利。
But Che Wagner from the campaign group Basic Income Switzerland, says it wouldn't be money for nothing. "In Switzerland over 50% of total work that is done is unpaid. It's care work, it's at home, it's in different communities, so that work would be more valued with a basic income."
但“瑞士基本收入”活动团体的瓦格纳说,这个措施不会是不劳而获。“在瑞士,全部工作中50%多是无偿劳动。护理工作,家务劳动,各个社区中的工作都是,所以有了基本收入,工作会更显价值。”
But Luzi Stamm, who's a member of parliament for the right-wing Swiss People's Party, opposes the idea. "Theoretically, if Switzerland were an island, the answer is yes. But with open borders, it's a total impossibility, especially for Switzerland, with a high living standard. If you would offer every individual a Swiss amount of money, you would have billions of people who would try to move into Switzerland." he says.
但右翼瑞士人民党的议员斯塔姆反对提议。“理论上,如果瑞士是个岛国,答案是肯定的。但有着开放边境,就完全不可能,特别是对瑞士这样生活水平高的国家。如果给每个人发瑞士的钱,就会有几十亿人想要迁入瑞士。”他说。 |
