   Hey folks, if we’re going to keep Hungary in the EU, why not also invite Russia and the US?

     @ecpoir Sounds like the classic neoliberalism-to-fascism pipeline.

     EU planning has been very short-sighted and very German-centric, which is how we ended up with clowns like Orban and financial crises like the one in 2010.

     Add to that the exorbitant white-collar corruption, and it all starts to make sense.

     EU forces countries to sell off public infrastructure assets to their corporate friends, resulting in huge problems + bills to the citizens.

     Orban bought back the electricity production and Hungarians were relieved to feel it in their pockets.
