Many characteristic theses of Reform Party ideology can be found in Siim Kallas's Eesti pass tulevikku (Estonia's passport into future, Estonian text here), an electoral manifesto from 2003. A thought I find especially noteworthy, nay, astonishing, is e.g.

Selle teema innukad eesträäkijad on ilmselged tulevased vasakpoolsed poliitikuhakatised, keda õppetöö kui niisugune õieti ei huvitagi.

Approximate translation:

The zealous pioneers of this topic [i.e. student scholarship] are obvious leftist would-be politicians, who are in fact not interested in studying itself.

We probably probably can't use those ideas in the article, but one can easily conclude, what Estonia's future developments look like in the eyes of Rein Lang's party. E.J. 15:16, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
