Horrific, for the Future of our country.
This continuous Trend over nearly the 13 years of this Orban Government, of deaths against annual new born in Hungary – Horrendous.
Do the Maths – the continuation of this TREND at this increasing rapidness – for Hungary is a perilous TREND.
Think and analysis this disastrous TREND – pull it apart, and at the end of your examination of this horrendous TREND, look at the Orban policies, his political ideas and philosophy- his Creeds for his vision of the future of Hungary – and make a decision – Right or Wrong?
Public Health – standards of Public Hospitals, the need as we age in high probability to visit – in Hungary our standards in Public Hospitals is 3rd world – Disgraceful.
Ask yourself the poignant question – has this added to increased death ration in Hungary – and the FACT that lifespan of Hungarians is getting Shorter?
Age bracket of Hungarians leaving for professional and “other” reasons based on there Future – the downward trend on-going of the Hungarian economy – the Hungarian population is being SAVAGED with the “moving away” of the younger generation of Hungarians – professional & “other.”
WHAT impact on this horrendous trend for the FUTURE of Hungary – has Victor Orban and his Government, over the past nearing 13 years in power, there policies by their rule – what effect has this been on Hungary?
“When the Yoke is Broken,
the Burden is Removed.”
The answers to Hungary’s massive on-going PROBLEMS – its survival is in the above expression.
Deaths are raging world wide thanks to the covid death shot, Do some research !!!
@robert – Facebook or the Alice in Unicornland echo chamber don’t count, would love to see the factual link
Speaking facts: “Assuming no net migration and unchanged mortality, a total fertility rate of 2.1 children per woman ensures a broadly stable population” – https://data.oecd.org/pop/fertility-rates.htm
Feel free to check out Hungary: we were at 1.52 in 2020. Trouble in Paradise!
Our “patriotic, Christian Democratic, anti-mainstream and non-progressive government” (Mr. Szijjártó’s words, not mine) needs to inspire the Nation to breed again at roughly 1977 levels to hit the benchmark (assuming no excess pandemic related or Death Ray induced deaths) . Or start allowing in immigrants, at some point!
