In hungarian: "Jobb ma egy veréb, mint holnap egy túzok." In English something like this: "A sparrow is better today than a bustard tomorrow."

Base most of the economy on one industry Allow rampant corruption and fraud for decades Don't diversify education Keep that up, even if the core industry is faltering Experience mass unemployment when core industry sends jobs elsewhere to save money Experience mass exodus because of the lack of jobs Allow drug addiction to run rampant with mass unemployment Cue a second exodus. City no longer has population to sustain infrastructure City goes bankrupt. David! She answered me. The American people are really friendly!
