Hungarians Are Least Tolerant Of Drug Addicts And Alcoholics
"Hungarians are least tolerant of drug addicts and alcoholics, according to a survey by pollsters Szonda Ipsos. They are followed on the list by homeless people and non-regular drug users, according to the survey of 1,500 people.

Society is somewhat more tolerant towards Roma, the unemployed, immigrants and smokers, though the assessment of these groups still is worse than moderate.

The 18-29 year-olds turned out to be more tolerant than other age groups, while those above 60 were least tolerant."
