I was wondering this morning, why would the Hungarian central bank governor attack the Euro in the FT, it makes for uncomfortable future meetings w Eurosystem governors, without much benefit ft.com/content/35b275… via @financialtimes
now it makes sense: @nytimes reports Selam Gebrekidan and @mattapuzzo just dropped a mind-blowing investigation into the agricultural mafia network that Orban has created to milk European subsidies (yes, while bashing the euro) nytimes.com/2019/11/03/wor…
this is not just Hungary - Orban a good example because of he seems to have put state apparatus in service of intimidating farmers, opponents and buying allies - but look at the concentration of CAP subsidies going into the top 20% recipients across Eastern Europe.
