Inflation devoured family allowance in Hungary
The opposition Jobbik-Conservatives party has called for the family allowance to be doubled and proposed that recipients be required to spend the benefits on the needs of their children.
Addressing a press conference on Saturday, Jobbik lawmaker Dániel Z Kárpát criticised the government’s “insufficient” back-to-school support measures, saying it was not enough to transfer the September family allowance at the end of August. He proposed the introduction of a “family card” on which families would get double the monthly allowance to cover back-to-school expenses.
The regular monthly allowance should also be doubled because “more than half” of its value has been lost due to inflation, he said. Putting monthly family allowances on the family card would ensure the money is spent on food and other items required to raise children, instead of on gambling and tobacco products, he added.
The aggressive, rampant growing continual up-ward TREND in Hungary, through wrongful Economic & Financial policies, the destruction of European Union relationships and with the wider world, country’s governed under DEMOCRACY, that have been DRIVEN by Victor Orban and his Government, the BLAME – is solely of there OWNERSHIP.
“The Rich continue to get RICHER in Hungary and the POOR growing at a rate, that is HUMONGOUS , in growing thousands POORER.
Orban – “my Party are a Family first FOCUSED Party.”
What a comedian.
