If the Swiss truly agree to the policy it would be fine. Coercion is the opposite.
When imposed by autocrats, hiding under the false authority of a popular mandate, it should be called out. That's why consent of the governed is such an important, foundational principle. Once the government ignores that responsibility, it becomes tyranny.
As we've seen, the tyrants have become more subtle, patient and skilled in order to better deceive us, not less tyrannical.
Let's imagine how many scenarios might be real and similar to... I live near my aged parents to help take care of them and the way I get to work fastest is by car or I need my car for my low paying job... point is gov't is the shits at making practical, frugal and wise decisions for us

This is about affording stuff, this is about taking away autonomy.
