Hungarian healthcare system to be privatised?
Change language:
PM Viktor Orbán said he in his morning interview that he was against privatising health-care services, while “health privatisation has persistently been included in the left-wing programme because many of them have lobbied for business groups interested in a private health care … they have an interest in opening up business opportunities for international investors.”
While Hungary is “on the right track, it is far from being a rich country yet,” he said, adding that the privatisation of health care would mean low earners being left without health services. The government aims to ensure the best possible services through a state-owned and state-controlled health system, Orbán added.
The ruling government is giving the 13th month pensions and has regularly raised the minimum wage and salaries in certain sectors, he said, adding that the labour market was now tight,
tax rates were “very good in European comparison, and economic growth is around 7 percent rather than 2 or 3 percent,”
he added.
Orbán said that besides “mistakes and sins committed until 2010”, the leftist parties had also refused to support the government’s efforts to rectify those missteps afterwards, Orbán said. They did not vote for proposals or tax cuts or the re-introduction of the 13th month pension, and regularly attacked recent measures such as the caps on food and fuel prices and the interest rate cap on mortgages with variable interest rates, he said.
Money that should be used to improve the underfunded state healthcare is instead being spent on vanity sports projects because Orbán likes football and sport (and has private healthcare for him and his family).
Fake news sponsored by Fidesz Goebbels Kft because who cares about the truth anymore
Leftists cannot improve a country, they can only spend money poorly and go towards bankruptcy. It is a widely known fact that global leftists are conspiring with huge corporations, like big tech and big pharma everywhere in the west – just look at the sad state of USA now, a marxist-fascist kleptocracy filled to the brim with utter insanity, like wokism and black racism.
I think Orban is the best choice.
The disease of leftism has utterly destroyed my nordic country. If Orban wins, i’ll move my software company over to Hungary. I just want to live in a sane country.
