So it looks like it was a teaser campaign, designed to get people all riled up and talking about it. Worked, didn't it!

I noticed the other day that the one facing the disabled parking space that I mentioned above, that previously read 'Let's stop paying for the disabled', has now been replaced with a very similar looking poster that said something like 'Let's stop paying for them for being disabled, and start paying them for their professional competences'.
You mean, by being ultra offensive putting a focus on general offensive stereotypes in CH campaigning? Is it going to be "Let's help them get the professional competences" in next two weeks? Or is it just backpaddling from a poor advert job since it attracted so much negative attention and probably some official counteractions?
That would be clever and I am not sure if I buy that. Still makes me vomit instead of talk
I've met perfectly abled Swiss who are officially classified as "disabled". I wonder how common this is - i.e. how easy it is to qualify as a "disabled" human bean by employing "clever" shenanigans.
I don't think it's that easy. Perhaps a few years ago but now there has been a big clamp down. Don't forget that not all disabilities are visible.
Too many doctors co-operated with some of their customers and so, since the early 90ies, the IV insists on having doctors under their contract doing counterchecks. And doctors have to write comprehensive reports about anybody who is to become "Disabled". The procedure takes at least 3 months and up to 2 years. I only met one man, and that was in the 70ies, who had problems with the back and was so not doing military service, but plaid football in a football club. But I met perfectly disabled people who still had to try working as the "procedure" was not yet concluded.
do you have seen the new edition, fondue-ueli?
its a swiss guy holding a fondue pan, smiling.
looks stupid like the kebap poster do.
Whatever the intent behind those posters.... those who put those posters up are dicks.
They're nazis, i tell you... freakin nazis.
I saw one yesterday that had chenged to, it now had a second line that turned the first into a psitive. Looks like it really was a teaser campaign, I guess it did it's job getting people talking about the issues.
it's a pro-handicap campaign not a negative one. you've got to read the small print.
the latest burger king posters? now there is something really stupid.
