hungary doesn't just have parental leave. time off to help after the birth of a grandchild. everything about these policies is a good idea. they don't just tell people have the children they want to have, they encourage the creation of healthy families. the hungarian government wants to help people get married, stay married to the same person, and remain close to their extended families. it gives the biggest rewards to middle-class families. the very group struggling most to balance career, finances, and children in the modern age. in other words, hungary's leaders actually care about making sure their own people thrive instead of promising the nation's wealth to every illegal immigrant from the third world, they are using tax dollars to uplift their own people. imagine that. here's the least surprising part of it all, people absolutely love it. and why they? the government just won its third landslide election victory in a row. the lessons are so obvious that you have to wonder why isn't anyone trying that here? any time ame
