The entity is strongly opposed to tax hikes, criticizing the government's policy of pressuring local municipalities to raise land tax because their revenue base is failing to expand. It demands comprehensive prior cost analysis and economic certainty for major energy projects (such as nuclear power and wind farms) before any investment decisions are finalized.

The economic platform includes strong opposition to the proposed vehicle tax, which is recommended for complete abolition. Furthermore, there is a demand for the state budget to allocate corresponding funds to ensure fair financial compensation for landowners affected by state restrictions.

The speaker supports the reduction of bureaucracy but demands its implementation across every sector, not just selectively regarding wind parks. Concern is expressed over unfair competition, given that offshore wind energy production is subsidized and provided with special conditions, while onshore wind farm developers might as well throw their investments in the bin.

Economic arguments emphasize fiscal responsibility and cost control, sharply criticizing the exorbitant cost of the planned projects (totaling billions of euros). It is argued that consumers will foot the bill for both the construction of the electricity grid (€2 billion) and the renewable energy fee (€3 billion over 20 years), while the theoretical drop in electricity prices will be minimal. Cheaper onshore solutions are preferred.

The speaker strongly defends the interests of businesses and land surveying firms, emphasizing that in the current economic downturn, state actions should provide relief, not restrict or cut off activities. They demand that the state be prepared to compensate businesses for lost revenue and contractual penalties, signaling robust support for commercial interests.
