Statutory and effective corporate tax rates, treatment of depreciation, and international competitiveness.
Progressivity of the personal income tax schedule, including top marginal rates, bracket spread, and targeted credits (EITC-equivalents).

General government spending as share of GDP, excluding transfers already captured under fiscal.transfer_expansion to avoid double-counting.
Hungary's family-tax-allowance system, established under 1995. évi CXVII. törvény and progressively expanded since 2011 by Orbán-era amendments, provides per-child tax credits scaled by number of dependents (HUF 10,000-33,000 monthly per child by 2023) and full personal-income-tax exemption for mothers under 30 and mothers of four or more children. Combined with CSOK housing subsidies and student-loan forgiveness, the intended effect is pro-natalist tax policy: encouraging fertility and embedding family policy in the tax code.
Per invariant 3, reforms are scored by what they did on each channel-separated axis, not by the party that enacted them. This fingerprint is how the policy-match engine finds historical analogues.
Explicit links are curated by the author. Inferred links are hypotheses in the library that test the same axes this policy moved — the framework's answer to "what does the data say about a policy like this?".
Ranked by axis-fingerprint overlap with this policy. Direction match bolded — those are the closest historical analogues. Shape of the match is what drives policy-outcome comparison, not the country or party label.
