By Plenary Sessions: Mart Maastik

There is not enough data.

Supports strict budget discipline and responsible investment, while opposing tax hikes that burden taxpayers and businesses. It warns against excessive energy production, which leads to falling prices but leaves fixed costs (renewable energy fees, network tariffs) to be covered by taxpayers. Furthermore, it defends the interests of agriculture against increases in land tax, fearing the sector’s demise and the concentration of land ownership in the hands of international funds.

Economic positions are characterized by strong opposition to the car tax, which is viewed as a financially painful and unfair measure for residents of rural areas. This demonstrates resistance to new taxes that disproportionately impact rural residents.

Economic views are strongly opposed to tax hikes, especially during a recession, as they undermine the competitiveness of businesses. Emphasis is placed on the necessity of reducing the state's excessively high operating costs before attempting to increase revenue through taxation. The speaker supports stimulating the economy by easing the burden on businesses.

Strong opposition is voiced against tax increases that disproportionately affect low-income earners and pensioners, and support is given to tax benefits aimed at reducing social inequality. Previous state budget expenditures (on defense and the energy crisis) are defended, while the government's cuts, which increase the income tax burden on pensioners, are criticized.
