  1. I do know one thing, no new member is joining the EU until Hungary and Poland are sorted out and until there are reforms done at an EU level, specifically on reforming the veto and majority voting. As for if Hungary can be kicked out of the EU, it depends, under the current rules, no but there are many ways the rules can change and if drastic measures are needed, there is nothing stopping the EU members leaving the EU and creating another without Hungary and Poland, either way, pressure is going to keep mounting on Hungary and Poland until they either change or get kicked out because it's highly unlikely the other EU members are going to allow countries to stay in the union that are slipping into authoritarian, especially with everything we are seeing in Russia right now. I suspect the EU is seeing an opening to pull Poland away from Hungary with everything that is going on in Ukraine, Poland isn't too happy about Hungary stance on Russia, if the EU can sort Poland out, it will be much easier to sort Hungary out because their veto won't work and the irony is, Poland and Hungary really does want the EU to expand with more countries to the east but them two are the main road blocks stopping that from happening because there is little to no chance the EU and many of its members are going to allow more countries to join the EU until Poland and Hungary are sorted out and reforms are done to the EU institutions to make it much harder for a repeat of what's going on in Hungary and Poland. In other words, any of the EU members as well as countries that want to join the EU, you can leave the blame squarely on Hungary and Poland because they are the main obstacles. I also find this unusually, a big draw to the EU isn't really the money the countries get from the EU but the political stability it creates, that is far more important as it will likely mean a lot more investment in the country, Hungary and Poland to a less degree are putting that at risk for its citizens, after all, would you really want to invest in a country that's being pushed further away from the EU union? Probably not and at the end of the day, they new the rules they were signing up to when joining the EU, if they don't like it then leave but in the end, the people in these countries want a high quality of living, these rules and reforms are a big step in delivering that, in other words, if Hungary and Poland are not careful, they could start to slip behind the other eastern EU members on economic growth and it's clear to see these countries are not learning, a big part on why the west is so successful is because of the rules in place, especially on rule of law, but hey, Hungary and Poland seem to think you can have your cake and eat it, a system like Russia with a modern standard of living, good luck with that one because it's been proven time and time again to not work, freedom for the people is what delivers economic growth and higher quality of living and until they learn that, they are going to slip further behind in time.
