"The prime minister went for sure, he set a goal that sounds good, but is very easy to achieve after last year's decline," Hvg.hu wrote in its analysis article. By the way, the former leading economic daily reported on the favorable economic growth with the headline that " The growth of the Hungarian economy in the 2nd quarter broke all records and exceeded all forecasts."
In the introduction, they quickly added that this was not surprising. Similarly, Portfolio.hu reported that the 5.5 percent goal is getting closer. "The faster-than-expected second-quarter GDP growth made the prospect even more certain that this year there will be an annual average of 5.5 percent growth, which is defined as the threshold for social security reimbursement, and since the actual growth can be between seven and eight percent, the pension premium those concerned can certainly count on it," they wrote in their article, in the title of which they wrote: "The rain of money is coming for families with children and pensioners."
It was already noticeable that the left-wing press did not really know what to do with the family tax refund plan. On 444.hu, also known as the Soros blog, last month, for example, the measure was called a potato for the rich, thereby embedding it in the narrative of left-wing parties about vote-buying. According to the far-liberal portal, Viktor Orbán subordinated the defense against the entire epidemic – since the attack of the second wave last fall at the latest – to the 2022 election results of Fidesz.
In the article, it was quickly stated that "the tax refund of an unprecedented amount before the elections, or rather a tax gift, is economically incomprehensible".
I would never be a left-wing economist, but especially not on this day.”
Zsolt Bayer, the publicist of Magyar Nemzet, published these thoughts on his social media page.
Well, this is a very sour grape for globalist mercenaries. The government that, if it can, does not take away, but gives. Ugly thing! There would be a better place for this money. Let's say you could use it to buy a respirator...no, no, there's already enough of that. But a vaccine, that...no, we also abound in that. Or...yes, that juice (read: money) would be in a much better place in the pockets of the opposition. I could spend it on sea riding, to pay for advice that was never given, or perhaps to creatively paint new yellow stripes in Budapest. But it would be even better if they were sacrificed for a false poster campaign defaming the government.
There is a problem with the understanding of the globalists, of course, we have known this for a long time. Of course, they are right that the government has subordinated the prevention of epidemics, but not to election propaganda, but to the protection of human life. It is just icing on the cake that a successful defense can even bring votes, but that was not the important thing. It is (also) thanks to this that the citizens of our country can celebrate the founding of the state without restrictions, they can enter shops and restaurants without a mask, and they can even visit sports events without hindrance. Of course, the globalists don't like this very much, they would have preferred it if the virus was unleashed and raged uncontrollably, because then the anti-government chorus would sound more authentic and the stream of lies from their press would be more believable.
If the government had the elections in mind, it would have been logical to curb the fight against the virus. After all, the voters' memory is very limited, and there is still more than half a year until the voting. By then, as is customary here, they will take our good situation for granted, just as many who were the winners of the operation of the FIDESZ-KDNP government, now slander it with their mouths full, because what they have achieved is "natural", it is their right as a subject.
We have to make the consumers of sour grapes bitter: no matter how bitter you are, no one cares about tax refunds or the possibility of a pension premium, and those who do, are just you and your blind, hate-filled followers. Those who think it's better if the neighbor's cow dies too.
By the way, if we believed (as we don't believe, because this government has been proving for a long time that it gives priority support to families and pensioners and it's not the first time that it favors them) that these steps are just propaganda tricks for the election, we wouldn't mind either. At most, there is voting only every 4 years.
