1955 Swiss tenant and consumer protection referendum
A referendum on tenant and consumer protection was held in Switzerland on 13 March 1955.[1] Voters were asked whether they approved of a popular initiative "for the protection of tenants and consumers", which would prolong price controls.[1] Although the proposal was approved by a majority of voters, it was rejected by a majority of cantons,[1] so did not come into force. Voters also voted on a counterproposal, which was rejected by a majority of voters and cantons.[1]

gollark: A few $ per hour, or something, outside of the free things.
gollark: It's not *that* production since nobody uses my software very much, but still.
gollark: I mean things like semantic search and text generation in my eternally-WIP personal wiki software.(Which isn't researchy, has to work for more than a month, and should not have data be sent to random Google servers)
gollark: I'm interested in deploying MLish things for various "production" things which don't really come under research, and so that doesn't really work.
