Swiss federal ministers are giving up their free annual ski passes worth around $4,000.
Switzerland recently voted in favor of a referendum for greater social welfare that was opposed by the majority right-wing coalition government, which warned against the roughly $5 billion cost.
Social media posts noted that government officials received perks like $200,000 pensions and, notably, free ski lift passes for Swiss slopes every year.
I wonder how much time they have to use those ski passes anyway.
