The EU's only common sense - Viktor Orbán.

Bloomberg: Orban Calls for End of EU Sanctions on Russia

The European Union should scrap its sanctions against Russia by the end of this year, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said, according to Magyar Nemzet newspaper.

Orban told his lawmakers in a closed-door meeting that sanctions have hurt Europe’s economy more than Russia’s and withdrawing them would tame inflation and reduce the risk of a recession, the newspaper, closely affiliated with the premier’s party, reported on Thursday without citing anyone.

Orban, who is seen as the closest leader in the EU to Russian President Vladimir Putin, has frequently lashed out against EU sanctions but it’s the first time he’s reported to have explicitly called for their withdrawal.

His comments come as the EU continues to block Hungary’s access to crucial funding on graft concerns and as Russia announced a “partial mobilization” in a major escalation of his flagging invasion of Ukraine.

I guess encouraging people to actually pursue higher education instead of doing retarded crap on social media is what is considered a “systemic effort” now,

The irony is more and more Americans think college degrees are scams due to student debt and lack of high paying job available after graduation. It’s going to be harder now to get people to pursue higher education with people’s savings drying up due to inflation and college getting less and less tuition from foreign students. Also doesn’t help when STEM is atrociously underperforming because to non-Asians because “math is hard” and the best and brightest tend to go to business and finance because you can easily “get rich and retire early.” The mentality and work culture simply isn’t there for it and it won’t change anytime soon with the current generation. Millennials and Gen Z are too soft, weak and indoctrinated to make the dramatic changes necessary…perhaps Gen Alpha will be able to as they are still in their formative years.

Most of them never had savings in the first place. The issue is also combined with inflation because you need food and shelter while paying for an ridiculously overprice degrees.

I think one of the big issues is that companies don’t care about you. They will grind you down to the bone and extract whatever value before dumping you in a ditch to avoid any milestone benefits if any exist in the first place.
