Ruling Fidesz lost control over growing food prices?

Democratic Coalition Fidesz food Hungary money
Ruling Fidesz is resorting to “sham measures” to conceal the fact that it has lost control over the weak forint and increase in food prices, the opposition Democratic Coalition (DK) said on Thursday, commenting on shops having to display signs showing that the government has frozen the price of seven food products for 90 days.
 
Parliamentary group spokesman Zoltán Varga told an online press conference that in a similar fashion, “hospitals should be forced to display signs showing how many doctors and nurses have resigned over the past ten years and how much debt they have accumulated as a result of the government’s failure to pay operational costs.”
 
Additionally, schools should be expected to display at the entrance how many teachers they are short of and petrol stations should be expected to also display the price of fuel ten years ago, he said.

    Why should the Hungarian government have control over food prices? We now live in a society based upon the free market. Unfortunately at this time their have been many factors effecting food prices globally from devastating droughts, causing crop failures and from labor shortages caused by the Covid19 pandemic at many food processing companies further compounding the food supply shortages globally. If the government forces merchants to freezes prices soon you will find very little choice on grocery store shelves because their suppliers will sell their goods elsewhere. Do Hungarians want to return to the empty shelves of the communist past? Many Hungarians grow gardens and raise chickens and other animals already. Seems like more people need to produce more of the food they consume.
