  142. ​ @milantoth6246  ''''' to corruption, tyranny, communism, the east, authoritarianism, and through the current government and/or its spiritual successors.''''' So let's see: 1. corruption : I believe V.Orban and his government has every reason to want to reduce corruption as much as possible. But even if there is some corruption, I believe Hungary is already currently ranked as one of the western world's least corrupt countries. So maybe you need to check if your measurement of corruption is a rational one. Namely, it is not wise to compare corruption in a state formed just in 1989 (like Hungary), with a state formed in 1707, like the UK, or Sweden, or Germany, or the NL, etc, and say, that 5% more corruption, is a failure of the government. Otherwise, as far as I know, corruption in Hungary should be the problem that least concerns one, right now. 2. Tyranny: how is your current government tyrannic? Tyrannic, means illiberal. Whom is your government iliberal to? Answer: not even one. I would be far less liberal than V.Orban, if I were the PM of Hungary, without being tyrannical at all. Your judgement is nonsensical at best, dishonest. 3. The east. What is wrong with the east? Is China or Russia buying serious parts of your economy? which ones? Explain. How does that compare to Germany and the US? Whose ideological influence is ultimately worse? My answer: the West's. (You must note here that the West's ideology used to be overall better than the East's. By 1989. Not anymore. Also note that Russia and China do not share the same ideology, and are also very different culturally, and obviously, genetically.) 4. Authoritarianism: authoritarianism is not fundamentally bad. Tyranny is. Go back to (2). Furthermore, our current parliamentarian systems do not allow for authoritarianism. Why? Because our governments are backed by our parliaments, who were elected by us. So if Orban wants to do A, he needs 51% of MPs to say '''''ok''''''. In which case he is obviously enough not authoritarian. In case he does not get 51% PMs to say '''''ok''''', then he CANNOT do A. In which case he is also obviously enough not authoritarian. So maybe what you in fact mean, that it is the majority of the hungarian PEOPLE, who in fact force some of their opinions to minority opinions (of 20% let's say), who want to not do A. In which case it is the legal system ITSELF that is authoritarian, and not the hungarian government, which is just following the law. I admit, that current parliamentarianism can leed to such inoptimal(?) situations, in which 51% of the public, CAN in fact, FORCE their opinion to any other minority. So this is not a perfect system maybe. But can you come up with a better one? :) PS. I am greek. For a peculiar reason, your small country has the best government, together with that of Poland and Russia, when measured by the quality of the prospective civilizational state of your country/the respective countries, in 100 years from now. You know what I am talking about :)

  254.  @nocomment00  I believe you confuse the concepts of ''''the EU''''', '''''''the left'''''', and the '''''''EPP''''''' (european peoples party). The EU, is not left wing. The EU, is not right wing. The EU does not want anything at all. It does not want to preserve the nation-state. it does not want to disolve the nation-state. It does not want to replace the dutch people with non-dutch people. It does not want to preserve the dutch people. It does not want anything at all. The EU is a political organization, that is governed by: 1. The (EU) Commission. 2. The (EU) Council. 3. The (EU) parliament. (4. other EU institutions) 1,2 and 3, are elected, or somehow determined by the peoples living (voting) in the EU. The peoples of the EU, have elected the parties called EPP, SD, RE to rule over these 3 major institutions. It is these 3 parties that are responsible for the ''''''phenomena''''' and actions, that you describe as ''''''left wing''''' in your comment. To put it clearly, it is not the fault of the EU, that your country, the Netherlands (or Belgium) is losing its cultural identity, and that the Dutch people are slowly being replaced by other peoples inside the Netherlands. It is the fault of the Dutch people, because they systematically vote for parties like VVD, D66, PvdA, Volt, etc, etc, who want to undertake these policies. I repeat. The (negative) phenomena that you describe, must be debited to the peoples of Europe. Not the EU. One last example: Hungary, is inside the EU. Hungary is almost 100% hungarian, 100% white, and its people systematically vote against their slo replacement. And as a result, Hungary remains 100% hungarian today. But it is an EU member nonetheless. So again, blame the Dutch people (who vote accordingly). Not the EU. :)

  347.  @robertocalibancove8245  why is workers losing '''''trade power'''' a bad thing? For instance neo-liberal countries like the UK, the US, Ireland, or the Netherlands, are a lot wealthier than social democracies like France, Italy, or Spain. Apart from this, I believe wages in your country, Italy, are rising, which is mostly a result of Italy selling its products to even less competitive markets like my country, Greece, Croatia, or even France, thus having a huge trade surplus with the rest of the single market. If you exit the single market, Greece and France will impose tariffs on your products, and so you will lose income that you would then use to buy products from them, or other countries, like the US. You would therefore become way poorer. Germany and the Netherlands are more competitive than Italy, and others , and will remain so whatever you do, just because their populations are more advanced technologically, and philosophically, Roberto. You can do nothing about it. Just in case german or dutch or swedish economic rivalry is your concern. The single market, as well as the Euro, are very good for Italy, because they will accelerate your least competitive companies death, your GDP will fall by 3%, your population will decrease accordingly by 5%, and in the new equilibrium, you will be (1-3%)/(1-5%) = 2% wealthier, just by having your least competitive businesses closed to german competition. So the single market and especially the Euro will make Italy wealthier. Making spoons (or anything else) less efficiently than Germany, will add 3% to your GDP, but will increase your population by 5%, making you poorer per person. Let me tell you what my problem about ''''''eu integration'''''' is. It is that Germans will slowly be replaced by less beautiful Greeks and Italians. :(
