Once again, Hungary insists it is not Greece

It's stupid politics, not reality, that has the world believing that Hungary has the same kind of fucked-up debt problems as Greece. They just don't have that same ridiculous level of laziness, they say. 

The economy minister, Gyorgy Matolcsy, said in an interview on CNBC that the government would stick to a budget deficit target of 3.8 percent of gross domestic product for 2010. He acknowledged that the government, led by the Fidesz party, had made a series of verbal gaffes in recent days but added that it was obvious that “Hungary is not Greece.”

If that wasn't clear enough to understand, here's what the not-so-polite version of that statement really is: 

"Η δεν fucking χρέους-βρίθει dumbasses όπως η βιομηχανία."
