By Plenary Sessions: Rain Epler

The speaker is a strong advocate for the market economy, where cheap, reliable energy forms the bedrock of economic growth. He opposes tax increases and the squandering of state funds on inefficient projects (for example, 2.8 billion thrown to the wind), preferring instead to invest in the construction of a nuclear power plant. He is critical of lobbying and the ideas put forth by the social democrats, which obscure the actual costs, and stresses that while entrepreneurs must be able to earn a profit, the state must ensure a level playing field.

It supports economically sound and affordable energy production, stressing that oil shale is half the price of gas, even when factoring in environmental fees. It opposes regulatory schemes that allow commercial enterprises to profit from margins (arbitrage) and drive up electricity prices for the people of Estonia.

The speaker expresses opposition to socialist principles within the government, citing the optimistic hope of entrepreneurs following the departure of the socialists. This indicates a preference for more market-oriented and less socialist policies. Specific economic policy proposals are not presented.

They strongly advocate for tax reduction (specifically lowering VAT on foodstuffs to 5%) aimed at improving citizens' financial well-being and stimulating the economy. They are convinced that the budget deficit (estimated at 400 million euros) can be covered by putting an end to government waste (such as railway and energy projects). They support the principle that the more money people retain, the better the country as a whole can prosper.

Economic perspectives are skeptical regarding the oversizing of intermittent power generation projects, arguing that this leads to zero or negative pricing and fails to generate revenue for the state. There is support for developing dispatchable capacity and employing economically sound calculations to prevent costly import purchases and national impoverishment.

The speaker is against broad-based taxation (such as the corporate income tax proposed by the Reform Party) and supports repealing the car tax. Strict state regulation in the financial sector is advocated to prevent "usury" (or excessive profiteering) and ensure that banks do not pass on interest rate hikes solely to borrowers. The goal is to protect consumers and savers, not to tax businesses simply for making a profit.

There is insufficient data regarding economic positions (taxes, spending, trade).

Strong criticism leveled against the government's spending and tax policy, specifically opposing the proposed car tax. Emphasis is placed on fiscal discipline, highlighting that the state failed to utilize one billion euros, while significant sums are being channeled toward NGOs and wind farms.
