The proponent is vehemently opposed to tax hikes (VAT, excise duties, and the proposed car tax) and advocates for scaling back the bloated state apparatus. Support is given to increasing investments and generating new revenue streams via a bank tax (50% of profits), designed to tax the banks' excessive profits, with Lithuania being cited as a precedent. In the long run, the emphasis is placed on the necessity of reaching a consensus on what and how the Estonian economy should produce.

Economic views are opposed to broad-based tax hikes (including car tax, VAT, and income tax) that impact the general population. The preference is for implementing a bank tax to cover national defense expenditures, signaling a desire to tax the financial sector rather than consumers and families.

Economic views stress the need to find additional funds in the budget to raise the salaries of critical public sector employees (PPA), supporting the workers' demands for fair compensation. The government's wage freeze policy is considered unacceptable.

Economic perspectives indirectly touch upon defense spending, highlighting the obligation of NATO member states to contribute 2% of GDP to national defense. Data concerning other economic issues is unavailable.

It supports state contribution and intervention aimed at achieving social objectives, for example, through the partial cancellation of student loans to increase the birth rate. It views the state's role as supporting the borrower to alleviate the financial burden and stimulate population growth.

Economic perspectives stress the necessity of shielding households from price increases and tax hikes amid the challenging economic climate. There is opposition to eliminating free services, which would create a significant dent in family budgets, and negative attention is drawn to the cumulative impact of rising VAT and excise duties.
