Er, forgot, I was struggling to find the right equivalent for one term:

whom he can hold to with state ...

state engagement/government involvement.

*Traitor*, n.
A benighted individual who perceives an illusory distinction between serving his nation and abetting the criminals who govern it.

I was unable to find an adequate term like "state engagement/involvement", this was the reason of my "etc."...:)
"I haven't yet made up my mind on the significance of the last part." Just like me.
"wasn't the majority 'there' already?]"
Definitely yes. But this majority is growing. - And let me put a smiley here :) -
Much depends on the Hungarian Left. I mean those people who are not part of the terminally ill "left-liberal" establishment. The situation is "open".

I read that line to mean that "state engagement/involvement" is not an extra point but pertinent to higher education and healthcare, with a "," used where a ":" would have been clearer. Could be wrong.

I interpreted it as a rejection of the much propagated principle of self-reliance. But of course could be wrong, too.
