Former Central Bank Governor György Surányi recently reflected on Sándor Friderikusz's podcast. These conversations with fallen figures are good, they confirm who they are, from whose reappearance may the Good Lord save this much-suffering nation. Suranyi is an excellent example.
The most memorable attraction of the monetary man was when he sold the bulk of the Hungarian National Bank's gold stock (sixty-two out of 65 tons). It's true, this did not cause any particular conflict at the time, in the nostalgic Horn era, it fit perfectly into the work of the "experts" who were oblivious to the sale of the homeland.
Oh, those legendary times! Inflation and unemployment have swelled to double digits, and at the end of the dead end is the "solution", the savior IMF... Surányi - like his comrades - understands everything. (The mysterious Bilderberg group also invites him to their séances.)
It's a shame that the former chairman of the national bank has only been using his "valuable knowledge" since he no longer heads the central bank.
Finance Minister Mihály Varga sees it a little differently: "György Surányi is a belated disaster tourist who heard that there had been an accident somewhere, but by the time he got there, there were no wreckage and no injuries."
The "golden man" now explained that the utility reduction and gasoline price cap should be abolished in this country, and energy prices on the world market should be introduced. It is enough if people only heat the apartment to 19 degrees, and on the highway you don't have to press the pedal to the full, a speed of 110 kilometers is enough.
The problem, he explains, is that the utility reduction does not sufficiently educate Hungarian society. The people must be educated. (It's like we've heard this before. But not in the cursed one?)
I agree with the commenter: "Personal example, comrades! Add luxury to the common, and then you can save money."
