And this is but small fry among Orban’s cronies. The amount of national wealth these people stole from Hungarians is still not precisely known. And even if a fraction of it is recovered, the damage is done: schools, hospitals, roads and a wide array of other common infrastructure degraded so much in the last 16 years. It's a long way back for us.

> The discovery comes amid an investigation into Miklos Sesztak, Hungary’s development minister from 2014 to 2018, who is suspected of receiving more than $37.2m in bribes and kickbacks
> 12 treasury employees spent eight hours counting it
> Hungarian investigators have found $19.5m in hidden cash
