Economic perspectives stress the necessity of keeping infrastructure costs low to support the local economy and tourism. The text criticizes the profits generated by the state-owned enterprise (TS Laevad) that fail to flow back into the local economy, and supports directing those profits to local municipalities for economic development.

Economic views are strongly opposed to tax increases (excise duties, car tax) and the reduction of support payments, viewing these measures as the root cause of the loss of competitiveness and entrepreneurship. It criticizes large state subsidies (offshore wind farms) and stresses the necessity of creating economic security for families.

Economic viewpoints emphasize the necessity of a stable tax system and opposition to new taxes (such as the motor vehicle tax) which complicate life for families. The speaker directly ties the state's financial sustainability to demography, cautioning that saving money at the expense of children will ultimately lead to the depletion of the national treasury.

Economic views emphasize fiscal responsibility and austerity, sharply criticizing the government's expensive administrative reforms, which are costly for the state treasury. Skepticism surrounds the government's claims of saving when the Ministry of Economic Affairs is essentially being split into three separate ministries.
