By Plenary Sessions: Reili Rand

Economic perspectives focus on supporting entrepreneurship at the local level, but it is stressed that this requires genuine financial resources for building infrastructure (communication networks, access roads). They oppose adding unfunded mandates to local governments, as this does not contribute to job creation.

Economic perspectives support state funding for cultural and sports facilities, but also stress the necessity of encouraging private sector investment in the field. There is a strong focus on financial discipline and mitigating money laundering risks originating from the gambling sector, which indicates concern regarding financial stability and regulatory oversight.

The economic views are strongly focused on social justice and income redistribution, prioritizing targeted social spending (such as school meals and family benefits) over tax relief aimed at the wealthiest. The speaker supports the principles of progressive income tax, viewing it as a fair system that helps people maintain their livelihood.

The speaker advocates for social and economic relief for low and middle-income families, promoting the reduction of the value-added tax (VAT) on groceries to 9%. They demand that state support be indexed to inflation and rising food prices, and oppose tax breaks for the wealthy, viewing such measures as a value choice made at the expense of children.
