I hope so ;)
It will be hit ... I don't think that harder than economies build on mortgages ...
we will see what will happen. I consider Polands situation as good in comparison to some countries.
I remember when I was telling here half year ago (or even more) about EUR/USD and opening positions ... and about crisis in USA ... :P
we will see.
as to Dollar trend look here:

all currencies related to Zloty
I think it is bad for our export ... so I hope we are going to see the end of this trends I doubt that it is going to happen tomorow ;)
The Zloty will not stay as high, in my opinion against most other currencies.
I hope so ;)
Once the world recession hits I suspect the Polish economy will be hit very hard as its very dependent on overseas investors.

I support this idea in 100%. You don't have to be professional importer, go home for holidays bring some goods and sell it for your friends. As I know nobody who came form US brings cash. Ask your friends what they would like to buy (there is list of US popular products) and honestly you are going to have nice income. So you will exchange US dollars on much higer ratio that it is now.
as to US dolar trend ... it is hard to say Polish Zloty is stronger and stronger to every currency (only Czechs currency is more expensive than it was for us) nobody knows when it is going to the end.
What is more when we look on direct foreign investemens in Poland, EU funds, Money form emigrants, imported goods ... it looks like zloty will be strong in close future (they all must sell foreign currency and buy Zloty) our central bank because of inlation decided to higher rates ... so our bonds are more popular ...
If you would like to become an importer of some used or new US goods, i could "sell" you some ideas.

There is vilage Szkocja (Scotland) in noth east Poland
pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Szkocja_(województwo_podlaskie)
name comes form Scottish settlers (19th century) till today there is a lot of red haired people.
This process was made by Ludwik Michał Pac who brought Scottish, English and German imigrants.
And vilages had names coming from places of their origin.
Szkocja, Linton, New York (dziś: Pruska Wielka), Bromfield (Józefowo), Longwood (Ludwinowo) i Berwick (Korytki)
some have their old names some today have different.

in this case abortion is legal in Poland ...
Yes. Her choice is taken away from her when she is forced to have sex with someone. In all likelihood, the baby will not have a good life living with a person who looks at them as the child of a brutally violent man. Both will be miserable (although the woman will be miserable either way because he life will never be the same).

Of course not. I feel that result of this negotiations could be better. We were fighting alone and we achieved something other small and middle size countries were "good europeans" and achieved nothing. Lets leave it ... (read EU constitution)
Firstly we want Ukraine in EU free trade zone (without membership in EU, old memebrs don't have to pay EU cash for them or open laubor market for them) . We have French and British support. On next EU summit there will be offical Polish proposal in this case. So wait for offical informations.
So...you would find it fair if...say....Liechtenstein could overrule Poland even if Poland has much more people? Somehow I find it hard to believe that...:)

Official Poland suppoerts Ukraine. "WE" is Poland.
European constitution is created in way that biger countries will be much stronger than they are now (in EU). Poland wanted to change it, unfortunately couldn't. Instead of that 6 countries (not 5) are mentioned in EU constitution. Especialy when it comes to seats in important EU offices/tribunals of justice/... .

we promote them because we have the right to do so some countries support our idea some not, maybe one day we are going to achieve majority.
I think you don't understand Poland ... lets present it in this way. 85% of Polish people want closer integration. The fact is that for today Germany are the strongest memeber of EU and main power. Still Polish people want to intgrate on political level.
Read EU constitution ... and be quiet to referendum in Ireland.
I don't understand you Lukasz...do you want to say that we promote membership for them? There is a difference between good relationship and an actual membership!Just watch Turkey....good relationship but they can scream till they get blue in the face but will never become members...

Not if you use the EU to bring unrest and tension and intrigues in another wise well working body! Other than that you can do as you like....ah the old polish fear of an overpowering Germany...but learn to live with that, we can't and won't make us more smaller just to be more likeable!

Ok so lets discusse our interests (German-Polish) and possible cooperation. Lets imagine there was no 1000 years of wars and both nations wants to make EU better. What common interests do we have. We prefere Atlantic aliance (eventualy no aliance and only strong EU with strong army), you prefere Russia. We prefere low taxes, you prefere social benefits, we prefere Ukraine, you prefere Russia. We prefere free trade and you prefere protectionism ... There are countries with more similar views on EU future to Polish than Germany.
Simple
