Yes, it was thge first to open. East germans traveled from East Germany to Hungary and then to Austria and then to West Germany. How ? In Trabant (very small car), very big men, in t-shirts and shorts and Adidas shoes in December. And those were their best clothes, new. It was mostly like a Biblical exodus, though not as large and catastrophic. T-shirts white and sport shorts bright yellow. White Adidas shoes. Who could afford them. Those were luxury footwear. And they could buy a Trabant after 11 years of waiting on lists.

While the VAT is definitely the highest in the EU, Hungarians are not the most heavily taxed in Europe - thats gonna be Denmark, Sweeden or Norway. Under the age of 25, or if you have 4 or more children there is no income tax, and you get a great discount on income tax with 3 children as well. Corporate taxes are low in Hungary.

Hey, the darker red is "bordó" (from bordeaux wine)! There is an another word. :D Vörös means téglavörös (brick-red) what is contains less red colour with some grey and/or orange. :)

Hungarians are the most taxed people in the world? Bullshit. Literally just look up Tax Rates In Europe on Wikipedia. Austria's overall tax is higher. Czech Republic's is higher. Denmark's is higher. So is Greece's and Sweden's. Other countries are pretty darn close to the same as Hungary with higher income taxes and lower VAT.

[@januslog]

You are right Friedrich, my sources are indeed a bit out of date. Over the past few years, the Government of Hungary has significantly lowered some taxes which brings it more to par with other countries. Thanks for watching and pointing this out 👍
