Look to Hungary for ideas on taxes and immigration
Cal Thomas argues U.S. tax reform and immigration policy could learn from Hungary. He notes Hungary’s 9 percent corporate tax, 15 percent flat tax, 4.5 percent unemployment, and 27 percent VAT, contrasting with U.S. rates and debate on DACA. He emphasizes Hungary’s strict immigration stance and cultural concerns as influencing policy lessons.

The piece cites Josh Huder on a broader Republican setback and questions a tax cut's fate.
