With all of these new manufacturers and expansions to existing plants, young people should be staying in Hungary. More opportunities to move up and have a proper career than heading west to get a job as a baby sitter, or as a waiter in a restaurant. Stop looking a gift horse in the mouth and build something for yourselves at home.
