Another View of Hungary

Posted on April 18, 2026 by John C. Goodman

András Zoltai for The New York Times


Orban has shared a continent for the last decade with governments that in the name of liberalism perpetuate their own soft tyrannies, their own traducement of human rights and human dignity.

It is not Hungary but Britain that regularly arrests and imprisons its citizens for social media posts. It is not Hungary but Finland and Iceland where Christians can face legal harassment for expressing traditional views on sexuality and marriage. It is not in Hungary but in the Netherlands that young people suffering from psychiatric conditions can be euthanized.

For many years, our health care blog was the only free enterprise health policy blog on the internet. Then, when the NCPA closed its doors, the health blog stopped as well.

During this five-year hiatus no one else has come forward to claim the space. So, my colleagues and I have decided to restart the blog in connection with the Goodman Institute. We invite you and others to use this forum to share your views.

John C. Goodman,
