The speaker strongly opposes the current regional policy, viewing the existing support measures as ineffective "crumbs" that fail to address the real issues. The core argument is the necessity of strategic government action to ensure viability and foster entrepreneurship in rural areas. These positions are heavily results-oriented, focusing on the policy's failure to achieve the desired outcomes.

The speaker argues that the bills may cause more problems than they solve, noting a lack of proportionality in the state’s actions. The criticism focuses on the policy’s inefficiency and its potential to create undesirable consequences.
