A 2026-os költségvetés-elemzésből
Shooting clubs and military-sport associations funded by your payslip
4.1 milliárd Ft flows annually to the Defence Sport Federation — not as a defence capability, but as an operating subsidy to a sport association that could fund itself through membership fees.
Roughly 1,000 Ft per taxpayer per year — 4,083.9 millió Ft in total — routed to a sport federation through the defence chapter.
Amit látsz — és amit nem
The seen: a federation organising shooting, military-style sport, and youth activity under a defence label. The unseen: every wage-earner whose cumulative payroll and consumption tax wedge funds it, while the federation's members could cover the same costs through their own subscriptions.
Ellenvetés
"But military-style sport builds national defence readiness — it's not just a hobby club."
Válasz
Where the activity genuinely develops reservist readiness, the defence forces can contract for it at an audited price inside their own training budget. The part that is a sport association is a sport association — and sport associations fund themselves through members, not through all taxpayers.
Share if you think sport associations should fund themselves through their members, not through the defence budget.

Indoklás
The Honvédelmi Sportszövetség (Defence Sport Federation, "MH Honvéd Sportegyesület" / honvédelmi sport network) funds shooting, military-style sport, and defence-themed youth activity through an association structure. The defence-preparedness framing does real rhetorical work here, but the line does not buy a defence capability — it subsidises the operating costs of a sport association. Where a function is genuinely a recruitment or reservist-readiness activity, it belongs inside the Magyar Honvédség establishment and its training budget, costed and audited as part of the force. Where it is a subsidy to an association that organises sport, it is a transfer to a private membership body whose members could fund their own activity through subscriptions and fees, and the defence label does not convert it into a rights-protection function. The honest classification is a phased exit: the association continues, on membership funding and on whatever genuine readiness contracting the Honvédség chooses to buy from it at an audited price.
Átállási mechanizmus
Three-year linear phase-out. Year 1 the Honvédség identifies any genuine reservist-readiness component and contracts for it directly at audited cost inside its own training budget; the residual association activity transitions to membership funding over the three years. The protected party is the association's small professional staff and its current programme participants; the linear glide gives the association three budget cycles to rebuild on a subscription base.
