"Secondo Pentikäinen, altri due giorni lavorativi aumenterebbero le entrate fiscali del governo di circa 500 milioni di euro all’anno. Inoltre, ha affermato che il settore pubblico avrebbe risparmiato circa 100 milioni di euro non pagando più bonus per le vacanze per questi giorni.
La proposta vedrebbe aumentare le ore di lavoro annuali dei dipendenti di circa lo 0,6 per cento."

How about instead large businesses pay larger amounts of tax.
I propose not to make workers’ lives any more shitty.
Fuck this!
I propose we use to the money saved to fire these people into the Sun.
I never get these off anyway so I don’t care. I feel nobody celebrates these so it wouldn’t matter to many people.
Fucking government run by MBAs who never studied history.
The number of public holidays (arkipyhät) varies by year between seven and ten. Can the Federation of Finnish Enterprises show us that the Finnish state systematically has significantly better tax revenues on those years there are just seven or eight holidays than on those where there are ten? Show us the data, it should be easy to prove the claim.
OK, as an employee, I will accept to work 0.6% more if businesses and those who have income from their profits agree to pay 0.6% more income tax.
How is that?
Enough punishment of the people who actually work. Cut other spending first.
So which ones are getting cut? Easter? Midsummer? Christmas? I find it hard to believe those would be that productive to work on instead of having as holidays. This lobbying attempt is just for employers to have to pay less for their employees that do work on those days (cashiers, security guards etc).
Fuck this cunt and all his cohorts. We need to strengthen the negotiating power of our unions, outlaw the Federation of Finnish Enterprises and jail all its members.
Ah yes, the private sector looking out for the public sector. Fucking LOL.
I propose that Suomen Yrittäjät go fuck themselves in the peehole and substantially raise wages so people will pay more taxes that the government can use for defense spending, if they are so inclined.
A five percent wage raise across the board would bring in substantially more tax revenue than €500.000/year, I reckon.
How many days does this jackass take off each year?
All we need to do to reach the defense spending goal is actually start calculating the hidden costs of our conscript system properly. The US gets away with counting things like military spouses’ insurance as military spending, we need to stop being the “model student” and straight-up count all lost potential tax revenue from conscription as well as Valtiokonttori insurance costs as explicit defense spending.
Helatorstai can go, nothing else.
