By Plenary Sessions: Annely Akkermann

He criticizes the opposition's assertion that tax increases are stifling economic growth, offering the counterargument that state subsidies and money injected into the economy through borrowing are 2.5 times greater than the amount collected via taxes. He also criticizes the then-government of 2018–2019 for depleting reserves during a period of strong economic performance. The criticism is primarily policy-focused, not personal.

Notes that Martin Helme and Aivar Kokk voted against the amendments to the Income Tax Act in the Finance Committee. At the same time, strong criticism is not expressed toward the opposition; instead, the focus is on providing factual answers to their questions. The attitude is rather neutral and professional than confrontational.
