Soc Secur Bull. 1978 Apr;41(4):29-35.
Legislation drafted in Switzerland in 1975--77 aims at countering the effects of inflation and recession by bringing increased revenues into the system, reducing expenditures, devising a mechanism to adjust pensions automatically, and improving income maintenance for the unemployed. The proposed legislation to place the social security system on a sound financial basis now needs voter approval in a referendum. Swiss voters meanwhile rejected (in mid-1977) a government-proposed value-added tax designed to finance increasing government contributions during 1978-82. Still to be resolved, therefore, is the problem of how the government will finance higher contributions and still achieve its staged goal of a balanced budget.
瑞士在1975年至1977年起草的立法旨在通过增加系统收入、减少支出、设计自动调整养老金的机制以及改善失业者的收入维持来应对通货膨胀和衰退的影响。将社会保障系统置于稳健财务基础上的拟议立法目前需要在全民公投中获得选民批准。与此同时，瑞士选民（在1977年年中）否决了一项政府提议的增值税，该增值税旨在为1978年至1982年期间增加的政府缴款提供资金。因此，仍有待解决的问题是政府将如何为更高的缴款提供资金，同时仍实现其平衡预算的阶段性目标。
