15th Riigikogu, 3rd session, plenary session
The economic perspective is strongly opposed to tax increases, especially in the context of an economic crisis and high inflation. New taxes are deemed an inadequate way to remedy the economy, and the government is accused of waging a tax war against its own people. The preference is for reducing the tax burden and eliminating existing expenditures (such as abolishing the tax hump) rather than implementing new taxes.
