Progressivity of the personal income tax schedule, including top marginal rates, bracket spread, and targeted credits (EITC-equivalents).
Statutory and effective corporate tax rates, treatment of depreciation, and international competitiveness.
Size of cash and near-cash transfer programmes (unemployment benefits, means-tested assistance, universal child benefits). Architecturally distinct from forced-saving schemes — see condition welfare_architecture.
Targeted industrial and sectoral subsidies (renewable energy, chip manufacturing, agriculture, green hydrogen, etc).
Beginning in 2010 the Orbán government legislated a series of "crisis" sectoral surtaxes targeted at banks, telecommunications operators, energy utilities, and large retailers (Acts XCIV/2010 and successors), originally framed as temporary but progressively institutionalised through 2014 and beyond. The levies were pitched as making "foreign multinationals" contribute to fiscal consolidation while protecting households from austerity, and the proceeds funded transfer programmes such as the utility-cost cuts (rezsicsökkentés).
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.
