Verified via web search (BBC article was blocked from direct fetch, but search results confirmed the exact quote verbatim from the BBC source at bbc.com/news/world-europe-36454060). The quote is correctly attributed to Luzi Stamm, then MP for the Swiss People's Party, made in the context of the June 2016 Swiss referendum on universal basic income. The vote direction "against" correctly aligns with Stamm's stated opposition to UBI (he argued it would attract mass immigration to Switzerland). Note: the quote is from 2016, but Stamm left parliament in 2018, so no more recent statement from this author is available. Historical quote retained as-is since it is well-documented and authentic.
