  1. Ramsey – concur.
    Like finding a “Needle in a Haystack.”
    INFLATION is far from reaching its ZENITH in Hungary.
    The gouging, greed, selfishness and exploitation by the LARGE Supermarket Chains continues.
    Bad enough living with a Government that is FULL of PROPAGANDA, but to have it, coming out of Supermarket and “other” food distributors and industry – ANNOYING.

    What about over the counter PHARMACEUTICALS ?
    Get a journalist/reporter from DNH – to get” down and dirty” – investigate this on-going HUMONGOUS – price gouging exploitation of Hungarian citizens.
