2. Brussels wants to abolish the "interest stop". The interest on loans rose high in the recent period. Because of this the government introduced an "interest stop" in order to protect the families, which now protects 300 thousand families and nearly 30 thousand enterprises. Brussels made it clear in their country specific suggestions, that they want to abolish this measure. It's a cap on the interest. It is usually a temporary thing in case of crisis and the interest jumps high. Problem is people have to pay their loans fully. No exceptions. Banks never lose. So in the end it just postpones the inevitable. Gaining time. a. The "interest stop" has to be expanded to 2024 too. b. Brussels is right, we have to outphase the measure. We never know what's Brussels standpoint really is. It probably can be read on the internet somewhere on an official EU website. Noone does. 3. Brussels wants to terminate the "extra profit tax". The government makes those large companies pay extra tax which are accumulated extra profit during the pandemic and war crisis. We expect them to bear the common burden. However Brussels wants Hungary to abolish this tax by the end of the year. Sounds very populist act. "Tax the rich" is a popular, comforting thought. Who wouldn't want those fat pigs pay?! Almost as easy to point out from the other side of the argument that if you raise tax on companies, they'll just raise prices to cover the loss, so after all it'll just be paid by the people. Damned if you do, damned if don't. Rich fat bastards don't ever lose either. a. We have to keep the extra profit tax. b. There is no need to tax the extra profit anymore.
