News / Why are Polish politicians so bad at accepting bribes? [17]


I know, socialists (including PiS supporters) are always the first to sacrifice freedom in the name of some cause that they consider honourable. This is why they should be kept as far away from politics as possible.

News / Why are Polish politicians so bad at accepting bribes? [17]

Poland is deeply corrupt, anybody working close to public sector know it very well. This is unfortunately all-European thing, when bureaucrats have too much to say, corruption is unavoidable. Democratically elected politicians are mostly foolish thus often unable to get away with a crime but also relatively poor (lack of any achievements before entering politics), so they are willing to take almost every single banknote offered.


...and this interest of state comes against interest of Polish taxpayers. Anyway this situation is quite funny, I read somewhere that if you wish to witness how PO realize their political program (lower taxes) you must bribe their leadership. :)


So this is God the one who elected them? Should I thank you? :)


If you target bank secrecy to caught corrupt politicians, you also let the state to invigilate the rest of the society. This is not the way, the only way to reduce corruption is to reduce competences of bureaucratic apparatus.

I have an idea how to make "your" (German) help more effective. We should eliminate the middleman I mean German and Polish bureaucrats. There is about twice more German citizens, so every adult German citizen would be handed number of bank account of two adult Polish citizens. Your honest intentions would be more appreciated in such almost personal contact. I could be one of two Polish citizens on your payment list! Do you share my enthusiasm?!? :)

I would wish to see everybody here respecting teaching of the CC but people are far from being perfect. Or are you going to tell me otherwise, Seanus?


Current legal systems in western world are nothing more than worthless pieces of leftist state of mind. I question such regulations in many other points a swell. This is not an argument.


Perhaps you don't understand the meaning of your own words?


Do you deny than featus have the same DNA code as newborn baby? Do you deny that this newborn baby will have the same DNA code 50 years later? Do you deny that human life is a process? Please answer!


Seanus, you are really sure that you are not a mistake? Perhaps we need to send a death squad to sort this out? :) I hope that you will never adopt any kid because with your purely animal sense of being father such child would be very unhappy. Can you imagine that there are plenty of people with more sense that you, who have no problems to accept as their child who is not biologically their. Greatness of humankind origin from the fact that many of us were able to raise above from just purely biological instincts.


I hope that this LOL in the end means that you are just joking and you don't approve honour killings.


Does a newborn baby have developed personality? Perhaps killing them as well, some leftists already advocate such idea. Do you have developed personality?


Because this would contain a murder of innocent life. While women will never forget it and this is another reason for trauma. You are a hypocrite yourself because you failed to comment this issue. Seanus, be honest with yourself, you hide behind supposed good of a women just to cover your own laziness and egoism. This is about you unwilling to be a male of humankind (the one who is not lead solely by biological instincts).


Really? abortionreview.org/index.php/site/article/594/

This is of course far from final goal by as I said earlier Rome was not build in one day.


I would send congratulations but apparently I'm not sick enough to consider this to be a success story.


Nonsense, when she accept child then her perspective would be very different.


Again you push guilt if biological father on child. Such child would not have any contact with rapist, would be raised by other man accepted as father. This is just your another try to cover your personal weaknesses. Admit it!


That is a lie.


You have wrote before:

Again, [b]my primary concerns are minimalizing the traumatic effects of rape on the woman [/b]

You seems to changed your approach...


This is liberal ABC that freedom of one person cannot go against freedom of other people.


Your moral and philosophical concepts are nowhere where science is. As I replied to Seanus, human life is a process. Mind you that not so long ago some socialists in Germany claimed that the Jews don't have moral status of a human. This claim also completely ignore science and is based on flawed philosophical theory of racialist supremacy.


Mind you that newborn baby wont survive on its own as well! Neither some sick (even temporary) people would survive without help.


At least be honest with terminology. Be leftist without respect of human life.

News / 14 year old rape victim from Warsaw denied abortion! [348]


It would be interesting to see such statistical data about percent of really planned children.


I never claimed otherwise, this is not any reason to murder anybody. Cheap shot Seanus...


Nobody would force her to raise this child. You are just looking for excuses to kill innocent life, face it.


So you blame the child for behaviour of biological father? This is old flawed concept of guilt by association.


You failed to mention that this is problem of Muslim immigration. Anyway this is just wrong and we must condemn such barbarity.


I'm perfectly aware that human life is a process. Child is not less human than adult, neither foetus is not less human than a child. This is one and the same life from the start to the end.


In opposition to you I'm in favour of sever punishment for a rapist. I think that in some drastic cases including castration. I need to remind you that new life is innocent in this story.


Of course this is important but you are choosing wrong way to achieve this goal. This is common knowledge that sooner or later most of women must deal with post-abortion trauma.(for example a women who made abortion possible in the US or some other who ran abortion "clinic" herself) They need to be helped by professional psychologists (in opposition to greedy ones paid by abortion lobby) who would explain them that what was tragic is past. Help them to see distinction between innocent baby and rapist. This is the only way to solve this problem.


You must be joking? First of all we cannot target a child because we don't like biological father. Secondary, most likely he give a damn about reproductive success. Such people have very high level of time preference. They are too concentrated on pleasure at the moment to even think much about consequences (like prison or children).

Beside of that in modern times western civilisation is dying, it means that reproductive success is not considered to be so valuable any more.

Thirdly, a man so obsessed with his personal reproductive success is a primitive. This is why I would be ashamed to look at the mirror if I would reject such child. Father in a cultural sense is much more important than biological one.


You write about potential life and I defend human beinmg that already exist.


One murder is enough to be awarded death penalty. But if there is no such penalty possible at the moment, this is correct to give murderer for example 50 years.


Yes, we will enter this discussion as long as problem wont be solved. By the way I read that even leftist radicals in Netherlands softened their stance on abortion. Access is more difficult and there are no more death ships polluting international waters. Step by step, educational process will lead to happy end. Mark my words!

News / 14 year old rape victim from Warsaw denied abortion! [348]


Of course no, I would kill the child, my wife and her entire family.

News / 14 year old rape victim from Warsaw denied abortion! [348]


I will continue to write truth anyway. :)


For sure I would not punish my own child because some rapist. Seanus, I remind you that in our western civilization concept of family honor killing do not exist, this more Islamic thing. When did you converted?


Of course when you kill a baby this would solve all the problems and no place for trauma here. How simple! No, instead to pay incompetent psychologists to convince women that this is OK to kill her own child you could pay to competent ones to convince her that this is not a fault of baby and that what was tragic is already behind. Cost is the same but human dignity and innocent life is saved!


I didn't rape any women. You support the system which fund a luxury vacations for a rapist. I would send him to a labour camp and he would certainly participate in costs.

If you already decided to write about financial aspect. Tell me please how much innocent human life is worth according to your personal estimation. $$$?

News / 14 year old rape victim from Warsaw denied abortion! [348]


Utter nonsense. It is normal biological process. Things often turn different from our expectation without out personal fault. Even according to the UN definition of torture this is not the case.


Rape is against dignity and not a birth of new life! Currently a rapist is protected by generally speaking human rights (vacation in luxury hotel old-fashionably called prison ) and innocent life can be murdered. This is sick.

If you prefer to let the left to run our life, let them to brainwash your children we will never agree. Unlike you I understand that no ideology have permanent recipe for success. The only way to destroy currently dominant one is to question it even if this would be very long process. I think that somebody who have nothing to offer (like you) should simply shut up and stop discouraging people who actually want to improve status quo.

These states search for external protection of some important players. Poland need to become great economic power and military power to attract their attention. Anyway, as far as international relations are concentrated those who run Poland should not trust anybody. Trust and politics never get along, if we talk about serious states.

News / The most spectacular errors in Polish politics. [264]


According to which criteria? This was not cooperation with Third Reich but independent decision. Neither Czechoslovakia could claim to have moral rights to this territory. This move had not any important negative consequences.


I agree about Warsaw Uprising but it was not started because AK trusted to Soviets. Actually, other way around. They wanted to control the city before Soviets arrive.


This is very wrong decision but Poland itself hardly face any negative consequences unlike some other states which approved this action.


Why would Poland recognize such a banana republic? I doubt whether they would remain independent more than a year. Soviet would quickly take such present.


In longer run communism was more dangerous because this ideology had many supporters around the world. German National Socialists could count on support of Germanic people and nobody else. They would be crushed sooner or later anyway. The best tactic possible was to avoid military involvement (or just pretend to be involved) and let National Socialists and communists to kill each other.


Communist state did not have any moral superiority anyway. Polish involvement did not influenced final outcome as well. There were hardly any serious negative consequences originated from this action.


After Stalin passed away they gained some level of independence.

History / WHO WILL REPRESENT THE USA AT WESTERPLATTE? [28]


Of course this is wrong but still a sacrifice worth final effect. Better to let them to do it once than witness never-ending parasitism. At least my long term goal is to change the system in opposition to you. You accept the system, so take it with all its pathologies.


Transaction is finished and planes belong to this company. The best way of privatization (possibility of corruption highly reduced) would be auction with some minimum price. Even Ukraine managed to do it right!


In Poland there is no free market for sure. Corporations are interested to keep socialist state because it is easy to corrupt. They don't want to be just a subject on free market. Thus this is obvious that they would not control free market as you claim. Otherwise they would be interested to introduce liberalism instead supporting socialism.

However how would this state look like if we would follow your logic? Take us back to 1989 when almost all companies are state owned. You coming out with similar statement, I'm sure that all those idealistic communists would be glad to have such ally.

History / Poland and Lithuania [161]


I understand that you support state of law. While good law is when paragraphs cannot be interpreted in many different ways. You could sacrifice few minutes and provide here such paragraph.


It also needed many reforms, however it was evolving in good direction. It was reformable at all, whether mature representative democracy is hardly (in proper direction)...


I think that we agree that Fukuyama's writings about end of history are truly delusional. If so, we must recognize that there is a permanent battle of ideologies and currently dominant one will be weakened sooner or later.

Thus people who actually bothered to study what is right and what is wrong (about various issues), should by some way spread this knowledge. Their actions hardly entirely succeed but may push developments in some proper direction. This is not only because they want replace current system by something better but also because they would hate to see current system replaced by something even worse. What you propose is to sit quietly in the corner and accept wrongdoings around of us. I'm afraid that with that kind of attitude nobody ever gained anything positive. While you cannot seriously expect that those whom oppose both to your views and current system will remain passive as well.

History / Poland and Lithuania [161]

Poland should treat all citizens equally, no matter how other states behave regarding their own citizens. State should not be interested about nationality of its citizens. Unfortunately this is impossible in socialist state. Such state always divide citizens for smaller and larger groups according to many criteria to run their socially harmful policy of redistribution of wealth. (and of course to improve personal bank accounts of bureaucrats) To give cash to Lithuanian minority or even open Lithuanian language schools, they must confirm that there is such special legal subject like Lithuanian minority. Politicians underline differences among citizens and stir ethnic tension by doing this. When a state divide people according to their nationality, this nationality start to be permanent subject of political debates (in fact politically motivated demagogy).

History / Poland and Lithuania [161]


No, if you pay for this, even indirectly (taxes) then this is not a privilege.

In other thread I read that some Poles demand to be recognized as a minority in Germany, mostly to get some cash out of it. (according to Rzeczpospolita daily). If so, they demand privileges indeed.


Certainly this is their problem. Lack of respect for private property is a deadly poison. Polish government should finally return property to rightful owners in territory of IIIRP. This is our problem, because today they may ignore property rights of some group of people and tomorrow begin to question our.



From time to time some people raise this issue, however you are right that not so often duo to certain choices in foreign policy. If anything, people should argue about unjustified privileges for some groups.


Actually as I mentioned earlier omission of Polish law is a national sport in our country. This is why you can still sign that Poland has not perished yet

History / RUSSIAN TV ACCUSES POLAND OF BEING HITLER ALLY [30]


Politicians should not talk about history, thus Tusk should ignore such provocations. (Anyway, did Putin himself made any remarks?) If Russian spin-doctors decided to spread such bizarre interpretations of historic events it means that they want to provoke Polish side (and most likely some others as well). This would be very unwise to play their game and do what they wish to see. Polish side should simply ignore it, spoil their plans.

History / RUSSIAN TV ACCUSES POLAND OF BEING HITLER ALLY [30]

Less prosperous times and thus more demagogy in state owned media. This is sad to watch how Russian leadership wasting an opportunity to move this state in proper direction. They copy western socialist solutions instead to overcome them with liberal minded policy. Extra negative addiction is this pathetic historic policy aimed to turn attention of public opinion from their everyday problems. They had such a great opportunity to underline that Russian Federation have little in common with The Soviet Union. Even playing nationalist tune they should not show Soviet state in good light in any sense.

Such policy just give pretext to such demagogues like Kaczynski or Michnik to talk their usual BS. Of course from wider non-Polish perspective this is factor of little important what they say but people in Poland must prepare to watch a lot of populist politicians talking about history.

History / Poland and Lithuania [161]


What is the sense of concentration on this particular case if you don't want to understand how it look like in general?


Now you change the subject, before you wrote about privileges.

While I think that Lithuanian Poles consist significant group of taxpayers and they should be provided Polish language schools if they wish. Even pseudo-democratic (representative democracy) state theoretically should not discriminate its own citizens especially based on their nationality.

Such states used to create state education system and this is key problem. I have write that Lithuanian Poles consist large group of taxpayers and thus deserve attention. However like with everything "public" this is just lesser evil and some citizens will be discriminated anyway. If for example 10 Spanish Lithuanian families lived in Vilnius government would ignore their wishes for sure and they are taxpayers as well. They pay taxes on education but their children are forced to attend to school which is far from their expectations. This is just another reason why public education should be dissolved and then everybody could spend saved money on preferable school or even personally teach their children.

In the end, Poland is not doing any special favour if provide Lithuanian language schools to Polish citizens of Lithuanian nationality. This subject is completely unrelated to situation in Lithuania. Lack of civilized policy in Lithuania, this is problem of Lithuanian citizens. They will not build decent state with such anti-liberal policy based on narrow minded nationalism.


Germans signed such agreement that they will let two Poles to parliament if Poles do the same? No! This is just another stupid initiative from Polish side and I don't see any reason why Germans should do the same. You are right, this is unfair that Polish taxpayers must live in such pathetic state. Poland is not "f***ed" by Germans or Lithuanians, this is Poland which "f***ed" itself and whinnying!


Poland doesn't care about own taxpayers, neither the EU , thus I care less about their silly laws and won't criticize anybody who share my attitude.

History / Poland and Lithuania [161]


I will give you that, you are probably better democrat than I'm. However this is me who still think that voters approval should be enough.

Ethnic tension exist but such grant only add fuel to fire. Coal miners in Poland have not very good opinion because they were in privileged position during communist era. Since they lost their privileges they used to organize strikes where they act like bandits. Privileges not only make them unpopular in eyes of other citizens but also damaged their mentality.


I would rather expect Poland stop doing stupid things rather than others states begin to follow Polish example. I cannot blame the Germans or Lithuanians because they don't want to give cash to local Poles only because they are Polish. This is simply normal.


Do you really expect that native Polish or Russian speakers in Lithuania will speak fluent Lithuanian??

The goal of Polish state is to care about interest of Polish citizens and this is not interest of Polish citizens to grant cash to some chosen and create ethnic tensions by doing this.


It does because this is not a criteria. I talked with some Hungarians and Romanians about Gypsies in their countries. At first they don't complain about Gypsy way of being but about the fact that they get special treatment.

This is stupid custom that should not be cultivated. The Jews in the past were granted many privileges and I dare to say that this was very harmful for inter-ethnic relations. This is always source of envy and backfiring assimilation process.
