Tuukka Kuru 4h

Tuukka Kuru wrote that European nations had formed from the merging of the same ancestral populations, which he believed explained their similar phenotypes and genetic relatedness. He added that 90 percent of the genes of Finns were the same as those of other Europeans, although Finns had genetic peculiarities. Kuru asked how it could be concluded, in his opinion, that nations and races that had never lived there should be deliberately settled in Europe and Finland. #Eurooppa #kansat #geneettika (translated)

Joni Juusela 19h

Joni Juusela wrote that inheritance tax was one of the most harmful taxes in Finland and should be abolished. Working in the financial sector, he stated that he could see its practical disadvantages and said that Finland needed family businesses committed to growing in the country from generation to generation. Juusela believed that the impact on public finances should be considered when abolishing the tax, as government bond rates were rising globally, in his opinion. He warned of a repeat of the situation in Britain following Truss's mini-budget, when large unfunded tax cuts spooked the bond markets. To secure financing, he suggested cutting development aid and removing the tax exemption for foundations and associations. Juusela reminded that small inheritances were tax-free at that time. If inheritance tax were to be replaced with capital gains tax, he believed that the change should not drastically tighten the taxation of small inheritances, for example when selling old apartments. He proposed protective measures during the transition, such as a tax deferral right similar to Sweden's or deemed acquisition costs, so that the middle class could also have the opportunity to build wealth that spans generations. #perintövero #perheyritykset #kansankapitalismi (translated)

Juha Keto 3d

Juha Keto asked why half of the native Finns still voted for the left, which he claimed was driving Finland into chaos. He wondered whether this was due to stupidity or hatred towards Finnish cultural heritage, and asked if it had been so terrible in Finland that the voters wanted hell in its place. #politiikka #Suomi #kulttuuri (translated)

Venla Manninen 4d

Venla Manninen wrote that, in her opinion, there was evidence presented regarding the effects of mass immigration on Western countries and that the situation in Germany, France, and Britain, as well as statistics on sexual crimes, unemployment benefits, prisoners, and gangs could not be ignored. She believed that the differences between parties were evident in how willing they were to address the problems of immigration. According to Manninen, the Finns Party was the only credible party to solve these issues. She criticized the green-left for focusing on multiculturalism and stated that the Social Democrats had voted against nearly all of the government's immigration tightening measures. She also highlighted the border security law, claiming that six social democrats, including the party's vice-chairman, voted against it. Manninen criticized the Centre Party for its lack of direction and noted that the party had announced it was aiming for 40,000 net immigrants per year in this electoral term. She described the National Coalition Party as contradictory: according to her, the party spoke about deporting criminals while simultaneously wanting tens of thousands of immigrants for low-wage jobs. Manninen argued that only a small portion of labor immigrants found employment in jobs requiring special skills and that nearly all directed towards low-wage sectors. Manninen believed that the Finns Party was advancing Finland's and the Finns' interests and dared to say things that, in her opinion, other parties did not acknowledge. However, she pointed out that no party could change laws on its own. She stated that without the Finns Party in government, concrete legislative actions would not be taken to address immigration issues, and instead, tightening measures might be lifted and rules loosened. #maahanmuutto #Suomi #politiikka (translated)
