  1. That’s impressive by Poland. Is it because of more progressive taxes? Higher minimum wages? Or is life just simply cheaper?

  2. The problem in Spain is that lower-education households are always of immigration background and tend to have higher birth rate and have more kids, Spaniards generally have very low birth rate and many households do not have children.

  3. And yet, our societies economic productivity went ever upwards.

    What dies that tell me? That there is something seriously wrong with the economic system we’re using.

  4. Hungary could be like the Czech Republic if they got rid of their Psycho-in-Chief. I just fail to understand how my compatriots who remained in the country don’t see this.

  5. Plus Hungary now holds the title of being a nominal market economy where store chains are now forced to sell below profitability, because why manage inflation?
