Economic perspectives are critical of the new taxes that burden citizens, particularly in rural areas where using a car is unavoidable. He links the car tax to the argument about leveling the tax hump, but focuses instead on the negative impact of the tax and its unfair timing (bills arriving just before Midsummer and the start of the school year).

The speaker is vehemently opposed to the Reform Party's tax curve and the resulting tax chaos, labeling it a political dogma that will drain over 3 billion euros from the state budget. They emphasize concern over the competitiveness of rural entrepreneurs, which is suffering due to unequal agricultural subsidies and general tax increases. Furthermore, the energy sector is criticized for squandering hundreds of millions, a move that does nothing to solve the underlying issues of electricity shortages and rising prices.

Economic arguments support the rapid and targeted deployment of state budget funds (20 million euros) for infrastructure development. The focus is on implementing these investments and requiring strict fiscal discipline regarding approved projects, in order to prevent the funds from sitting idle.
