Sorry for the late answer. Depends. In my case (freelance IT entrepreneur) I know that software patents and silly copyright laws are really dangerous for my business. The day IBM decides to send patent lawyers because I happened to solve a problem with the same obvious solution they have patented in 1999, I am done for. So yes, I would say they promote better conditions. Another thing they like pushing is the possibility to go through administrative tasks online, in a secure way. I must say that it would be a relief if I could do everything through email (though France has made a lot of efforts these last years). Other than that, I don't know the specifics of their economics program. It is adapted locally from what I understand, only the copyright/patent/net neutrality/privacy platform is international. If you have a specific issue you want to defend locally, go make your voice heard in your national pirate party !
