By Plenary Sessions: Anti Poolamets

The speaker opposes the extensive state subsidization (2.8 billion euros) of intermittent electricity, calling it a waste of money that is being fleeced from the Estonian people. He stresses that the high price of electricity is destroying viable industry and businesses. As an alternative, he proposes investing in the refurbishment of oil shale power plants and the construction of a nuclear power plant, underscoring the necessity of saving taxpayer money.

Economic views center on the allocation of the state budget, criticizing the channeling of millions toward "frivolous culture" (e.g., ETV 56 million, Tartu Capital of Culture) at the expense of valuable culture. There is a demand for better appreciation of professions in the cultural sector (choir conductors, dance leaders) and salaries commensurate with their education. Criticism is also directed at the government's desire to use Ukrainian refugees as a reservoir of cheap labor.

Insufficient data.

Economic views are strongly opposed to the government's tax hikes and the recession, emphasizing "three years of recession" and "the most massive tax increases in recent history." The speaker criticizes regulations related to the green transition, seeing in them the promotion of a planned economy and the dismantling of the energy system, which has impoverished the people of Estonia. Support is given to preserving the oil shale industry.

The economic views expressed are strongly opposed to subsidies and state intervention, characterizing the green transition as an unsustainable subsidy scheme that merely churns taxpayer money. Emphasis is placed on the necessity of preventing the emergence of the most expensive electricity in Europe, coupled with a warning against channeling funds to shell companies. This stance clearly indicates a strong preference for a market economy and strict fiscal discipline.

The speaker is a strong proponent of implementing a bank tax, viewing it as a successful revenue stream that would allow for the avoidance of other taxes, such as the proposed car tax. This indicates a desire to increase the contribution of financial institutions to the state coffers and reflects a critical stance toward the financial conduct of the Reform Party.
