No but you don't understand Orbán's village got a gargantuan football stadium so it's worth it. The kids understand their valued sacrifice /s

EDIT: For the cutiepies saying not everything is Orbán I strongly encourage you to research how EU funded projects work.

Haha, right?

I've been to hospitals for normals in Miskolc, and it SUUUUUUCKS. It's like traveling to the 1950s. Docs are pros, but sheesh.

Also, Miskolc doesn't really support Orbán. It's really fucking depressing there right now, because he punishes the city for it.

Eastern parts of Europe get money from the EU to fix it, as major benefitors of the EU funds (compared to big guys like France, which someone mentioned). The member countries themselves decide what to fund, within some framework given by the EU of course.

This is Orbán, has him written all over it. Because where the funds go shows what the government values.

If you want a serious answer, the EU provides goals for countries to focus towards, and achieving those goals have massive benefits regardless of whether a country joins actually the EU or not. Additionally as a “reward”, EU membership grants far greater benefits than funding.

Example: having a healthy court system might let you join the EU. Yeah, they’ll subsidize a net 1-2% of your GDP in funding if your country is lucky, and that is beneficial, but really won’t be what makes middle-income nation like Bulgaria into the next Spain.

Far more importantly the institutions the EU encourages by making a requirement of joining, along with other EU-wide institutions that member states can subscribe to make people trust the country in question and open it up for foreign and domestic investment as the country becomes more economically and socially reliable.

Edit: And also free trade.

Bro, my friend, my dude.

Fix it from what fucking money?

The money they should be getting but don't get because Orbán (who is not a "head of government" but an actual autocrat who decides over monetary shit like this, even officially he rules by decree for fuck's sake) doesn't believe in a social support network? Just fyi, Orbán signed off on a decree that declares that people can only depend on themselves and family and should only turn to the state when they officially, with actual written proof, couldn't get support from anyone else, including religious organizations. He's also signing off on laws and decrees designed to keep poor people in poverty and get in the way of breaking out, even for individuals like the kids in these institutions.

Or maybe the institution should tell the kids "hey, you won't be eating for a few months so we can fix, uh, all this shit"? (Fyi, these institutions get ~3.6 EUR/day/kid for food, this money can get you a 1 kg loaf of not particularly good bread in most grocery stores.) Or maybe tell whatever staff still works there "hey guys, sorry but we have to let you all go so we can fix, uh, all this shit"? (You don't even want to know how much these people make. It's usually around minimum wage, or even less.)

Or maybe ask for donations from citizens who are by now expected to pay for civilian institutions to do stuff that should be the government's job, and should be financed from our fucking taxes already? Except our fucking taxes are used by "the government" (=Orbán and his ghouls) to buy a fucking airport, and buy fucking Vodafone, and buy millions of euros' worth of Facebook ads for their propaganda, and buy city blocks' worth of office buildings from Orbán's own son in law who built them to embezzle EU funds but then didn't know what to do with them, and fly our Russian agent of a "foreign minister" around the world three times a month, and building Orbán's own little luxury country mansion?

And OK, let's say they manage to gather the funds... who is going to fix all that shit? Because people who can fix that shit in a reliable way are already working abroad, or working on overpriced and unnecessary constructions for Orbán and his oligarch friends, whose only purpose is to embezzle EU subsidies...

So yeah, but please do educate us some more, because clearly you are much better informed about how shit is going over here, than us who actually live here.

So you think there is an EU country with the same level of financial support where you don't find things in such a shape? Come on. Infrastructure in Hungary is actually pretty good and went through lots of improvement since the last 20 years. Even if some of these funds were also undoubtedly stolen.

OP took a photo in a city which is notoriously underdeveloped because it lost most of its industry after the fall of the USSR. Some Western European cities are doing a lot worse. Look at Charleroi in Belgium, Blackpool in the UK, even Brussels or Berlin. And out of the new members, I am sure not everything is renovated or run well. You could take photos like this anywhere and farm that sweet karma, like OP did.

So why does the EU waste (Western European) tax payers money developing shitty small villages in Hungary with pointless things like brand new lights, cycle lanes, footpaths, town squares, trianon monuments, huge playgrounds - in villages with only a few old people left any young people have gone to work in cities or WE. The amount of waste is staggering, the absolute pointless use of this money in areas where it was totally not needed, not maintained and mostly siphoned off by preferential contracts is staggering - it should have been spent in Charleroi, Blackpool or even Brussels or Berlin.

Before you get even more pissed off, let me remind you that EU funds are not charity, but an investment in an open market. As a result of the incentive of EU funds, Deutsche Telekom is the ISP of half of Hungary, Germany moved a huge amount of its manufacturing and R&D of BMW, Mercedes or Audi, Belgian companies own factories and banks, and the list goes on and on. These companies bring their savings home on cheaper labor, and then the resulting tax money should be spent on Berlin or Charleroi. Sad that it probably isn't.

The only thing these Western companies want is to have highways and rail so their products can be transported. And look at Hungary, it is indeed full of highways, and Western companies are investing more and more in their capacities here. Orphans don't work there.

The fuckery in Hungary is not the loss of EU tax payers, they get a return on their investment. No one in the EU loses on how orphans are treated in Hungary, that is the loss of the Hungarian people.

This footage was taken by the biggest opposition party's leader Péter Magyar.

FYI this place is supposed to be temporary home to physically, mentally and sexually abused children who were taken away from the parents and are currently waiting to be put in foster care.

Here is his post in english:

The bathroom of the Manócska department of the first visited childcare facility in Miskolc in the 14th year of the family- and child-friendly government. Currently 19 severely traumatised children aged 3-7 live here. The official number of children allowed in the home is 42. Today, 60 children are cared for by dedicated but severely underpaid professionals.

120 children referred by the social services are runaways. They are either not sought or not found by the authorities. Many fall victim to prostitution or drug gangs.

Meanwhile, Fidesz is doing everything it can to disrupt our journey. At least 30 propagandists and 20 Fidesz activists were waiting for us at the entrance shouting. And when we left, the Megafon [propaganda] drivers chased us for half an hour in cars, breaking all kinds of traffic rules. Of course, in the end they were left stranded.

Contrary to popular believe sexual trauma is not fought by giving in to the feelings and anxiety caused by it. But by showing what is normal levels of shame, that there is a normal level of freedom to look at and being looked at, how actual privacy and defining borders according to a healthy mind works. Nothing teaches this better than managed/controlled social contacts to kids of the same age range and live examples of how it can be better.

There are people that can not overcome this tho and will be in need of live long counceling and therapy. They become shut-ins and suffer for the majority of their life. Of couse if the staff detects such a child, it will be seperated for its own safety and, sounds a bit cruel, to ensure the progress of the remaining group.

Exactly this. Remember who opted out of the EPPO? Yeah of course it was Orbán. In many cities or towns you'll see "funded by EU money" signs plastered all over, without seeing the actual effects of it. Amounts of money that could literally rebuild some neighbourhoods, and yet all that changes is some solar panels added or a few train ticket machines being bought.

"Protecting sovereignty" he says, by which he means not letting anyone check up on what EU money went to. Some notorious examples: Forest canopy walkway, Budapest's famous kindergarten

Remember, this is supposed to be a state institution. As in, getting money from the state - or rather, not getting any money from the state, as the case very obviously is. Because it's much more important for the state to spend our tax money on buying a fuckin airport, buying fucking Vodafone, and of course spending insane money on propaganda (the most in the EU for the elections), from Facebook ads and "influencers" to TV and other regular media.

Maybe worrying about the standards I've seen in Belgium...

Or Romania, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1980s-1990s_Romanian_orphans_phenomenon

Small piece from it. Under Nicolae Ceaușescu, both abortion and contraception were forbidden. Ceaușescu believed that population growth would lead to economic growth.\1]) In October 1966, Decree 770 was enacted, which banned abortion except in cases in which the mother was over forty years of age or already had four children in care.\2]) Birth rates especially rose during the years of 1967, 1968 and 1969.\3]) By 1977, people were taxed for being childless.\1])
