I didn’t expect the state propaganda campaign to convince their people to accept welfare cuts and to embrace austerity to work this well.

I don't know about propaganda, but sometimes reality can be motivating. Here's one piece of it: https://yle.fi/a/74-20050548

Not sure if the current government is doing a good job with tackling this, though. Somehow even with the frugality they're claiming they're doing (pretty minimal actions really), the loan amounts are still growing. But these things don't change fast.
