  • Hungary on edge of bankruptcy

    The birthplace of the Rubik’s Cube has provided its government with a multi-sided financial crisis that defies any ingenious solution.

    The forint currency has plummeted and unemployment has ballooned, creating a voracious debt trap that is sucking down banks backed by Western taxpayers, particularly those of Switzerland and Austria.

    Laslo Gulyas, a Budapest barman, is one of the lucky few who can still meet his repayments. “In times of trouble people need to keep drinking,” he bleakly noted at the counter of a handsome pub in Habsburg-era building.

    “But it is sure now that many people with mortgages that were taken because they were cheaper than local loans, have lost their jobs and can’t generate the money to make the repayments.”

    For almost a decade Hungary binged on cheap foreign loans taken out in Swiss francs and euros. It was a regional trendsetter. Foreign banks targetted the newly liberated central and eastern European states hoping to expand rapidly in new markets.

    “People’s desire for wealth was not bound by the forint,” said Laslo Czirjak, a Budapest fund manager. “They borrowed in Swiss francs, euros and, even for a time, Japanese yen was available – it was just nuts.”

      Yeah…and we have the worst mentality and business politics…women and goulash….that is pretty much where it begins and ends!

      Gold is cold hard cash Reply:

      Time for each Nation to go back to Gold to back their dollar. The stock market is a fraud because there is nothing to back up its currency and billions are exchanged digitally, which one slip of a key and it is gone forever, which is what our banks are going with. Assumed monies is not hard cold Gold backing it because there is not enough gold in the reserves to back it and so what happens is there is a debt.

      Time for each Nation to go back to having their own currencies backed by Gold, silver, platinum or other precious metals. If they would be smart enough to dump the Euro they would end their crisis in Europe if each Nation went back to its own currency.
      That way, when one nation falls into economic crisis they don’t take everyone else down with them.

      Wait brothers in Hungary. Soon EU will break and we will create Slavic union. Natural and everlasting and we will show them what a true brotherhood means!

      Polak, Węgier dwa bratanki…

      From Hungary Reply:

      Well, we are not exactly slavs of origin, but we have the same saying in Hungary about the friendship with Poland.
      Stay safe brother.

      Contrary to what most people have been indoctrinated with, Judaism, Christianity and Islam are relatively new religions. Humanity goes back tens of thousands of years. These three have worked relentlessly to keep us from spiritual knowledge and using this power, of which all of us have.

      Gary Reply:

      I think you meant civilization goes back tens of thousands of years. Humanity is over 2.5 million years old. But, anyway, there is some indication that a great deal of history has been withheld from us.

      Dude, what does trying to divide people based on their religious beliefs have to do with the cause of liberty? If you believe that it’s all a scam then you have a right to that, but please stay on subject and stop spamming this comment section. No one wants to watch your stupid video.
      Thank you, the Administrator
      P.S. If you want to post videos at least say something substantive, on subject, with it.

      ANTHONY STUART Reply:

      i was thinking that too, but i had to leave one little comment on it.
      my bloodline is Magyar, if any Hungarian people read this than they may recognize my families last name (Varady) and it looks like history just keeps repeating itself, these same bloodlines just keep reshaping borders, populations, religions, and reality in general. i am manifesting positive vibrations to your situation. stay aware, and remember to be peace…

      So, you’ve shown that you have learned how to cut and paste, my oh my…

      Can you not think and write at the same time that you have to put the same pathetic comment; WRONG WORDS! The error of your’s on every site?

      Go copy 9/11 chronicles truth rising and make 50 copies and give them to everyone in your daily or weekly agendas…

      Now smarten up…

      Don’t sweat it! The US Treasury & FED will just cough up some of those “unlimited dollars” they pledged at the onset of the crisis. Just roll those presses a few extra hours of overtime, boys! What’s a couple extra trillion dollars now. Pffft, freaking chump change! Those stupid taxpaying useless eaters aren’t ever going to catch on.

      Oh when the shit hits the fan here….

      Some how in the USA we need to have the Irs audit the federal reserve, then the public supply the ammunition in there shoot out, we know this won’t happen because you can’t audit money that was created out of thin air………even at the gas price here I think pales of gas and lighters should be offered as well.

    10. Buck Johnson Says:

      You are correct Gary, Humanity has been lied to. The best way to hide something is in plain site and if you tell a lie big enough people will believe it because they can’t believe that somebody would tell a lie like that. Look at the Pyramids and the Sphynx (water erosion) and other parts of the planet that have structures and such, we have been around for long long time. People need to remember when the last ice age happened, it lowered the seas by 120 meters. So like all civilizations, they are always by the ocean or a river valley that is lush. Many of these sea structures we see (off of japan for one and the reported acient kingdom in India that was swallowed up by the ocean) could have been ancient cities and such from eons ago that where swallowed up in the last ice age or the one preceding the last one. Remember Northern Africa aka Sahara Desert and especially Egypt looked different during the last ice age, it was temperate and lush and had rain fall.

      Maybe the reason why the govt. and academia and religous groups don’t want people to look into this is because it would change world view of ourselves and our institutions. We would be the remnants of ancient worlds that thrived and came back from the “dark ages”. Could it be that Noahs flood was based on an earlier time 9 or 10 thousand years ago when the Ice started to receed. It happened in the upper plain states here in the US, when it started to warm up there where trapped massive bodies of water behind ice walls that broke out and flooded massive areas of the upper plains why couldn’t it happen anyplace else during the thaw. And what about the dark ages which people talk about following the end of the Roman empire. What if that made reference to us being in the dark ages up until recently from very ancient times. Heck today we couldn’t build the Pyramids if we tried, and that is with robotics and machinery and “advanced” construction. We are survivors of a lost epoch that happened eons ago.

      Also to get back to the story, Eastern Europe is about to implode and it will take the EU with it this year.

      It’s because you don’t understand where science(metaphysics, quantum physics ) and spirituality meets. Get your education.

      In genesis God told Adam and Eve to REPLENISH the Earth, what was was pre-adamite. If you start with two people , a man and a woman and from that point forward the population would only need to double every 180 years to get and after only 6,000 years you would have over 8 billion LIVING people. You scoffers out their have a right to deny Truth. There was a great or many great civilizations prior to Adam and Eve. It was all turned into a void (satanic flood). Satan was a ruler . You can read about it in Isiah. Anywho, one thing is for sure. WE ARE ALL IN FOR ONE HELL OF A RIDE. Some of us won’t have to see all of it through , Praise be to Jesus. Just a few blogs of mine will remain of me, Amen and Hallelujah !!!! What a day that will be when my savior’s face I see……. just get yourself saved and join the winning team.

      Alex,everyone, PLEASE, share this information,

      WARNING! Water rationing days away in CALIFORNIA. Says Mayor Villaraigosia/Governor, I just heard the news report on mainstream talk radio 640KFI.

      California first than the rest of the South Western part of the U.S.

      On March 1, farms in Northern CA will have there irrigation systems turned off for three weeks.

      No food no water!

      If California goes so goes smaller more helpless states.

      This is heartbreaking its as though someone wants to STARVE us out. I would be careful accepting there water rationing devices because ‘they’ will be able to control them remotely.

      Good luck, guys!

      Hungary is pretty much financially stable because Hungary is one of the countries that hijacked the US economy because of outsourcing. I see most US companies fleeing to Hungary and that why our US economy is in the plunge.

      So i dont believe this article at all for one bit. Hunagry is doing well and good and people have the money here. Everything is nice and rosey here compared to the US. The US has no career at all.

      Yes….your right.

      Hungary has no recession and we have a future here in Hungary rather in the US.
      The US is a sinking ship and you can thank your US Government for this by outsourcing our precious US corporations…

      Once again, this article about Hungary is BS!!!!! Its a false statement and Hungary is stable and doing well with its unemployement rate DROPPING to nearly 50 percent….
