InPolska - PO pays for the campaign from it's own budget, as every other party though they are being subsidied from taxpayers money unfortunatelly. This goes for all perties.

Life / How much money should I save to move to Poland? [17]

Ikea is for design, not necessery quality.
People nowadays don't want to buy furniture for 100years, those will be out of style/boring as *** in 10 years so it's better to buy cheap and change.

Study / I got accepted into a university in Gliwice, Poland! [38]

if you are looking for country that needs chemists you should look for countries with strong industrial production. Croatia is not one of them.

If you want to work elsewhere, then it doesn't matter :)

Love / My wife is Polish and it's difficult for her to open up and talk about her feelings [14]

I'm trying to say that not all such emails have to be baseless - for example fot me this one is not - it's a genuine question.

And in my opinion Polish women might have some reservations about talking deep feelings with their partners - it's a cultural thing, we like to keep those things to ourselves. Of course some tend to share more than the others,(I share a lot between close friends :)) however some really private stuff even I keep to myself :) What do you think?

Love / My wife is Polish and it's difficult for her to open up and talk about her feelings [14]

Gosc, even though you are right in saying that everyone is different, that kind of posts holds some merit. After all although everyone is different statistic can be applied to a group (Asimov).

Anyway saying that some generalizations cannot be made about a large group of people in unwise. Can't you generalize that Polish people are more religious than Czech people? Sure you can. Can't you generalize that there's more Black people in Africa than in Poland? Sure you can.

So kindly let people discuss as they please, if they don't offend someone.

I have lived in Poland all my life and hold different opinion than you, and I'm allowed to, kind sir.

Edit: "there is NO difference between Poles and others" - and this is simply untrue. Are you saying there is no cultural difference between person from Poland, Iran, Japan and USA, for example? There are. MASSIVE ones.

Love / My wife is Polish and it's difficult for her to open up and talk about her feelings [14]

I think Polish people in general are not to fond of talking too much about their feelings (deep down ones not surface ones).
We tend to keep those things to ourselves, love to talk about other people though :)

Language / Is math in Polish different than in English? [59]

My experience of British education system is that when you ask an office worker to do a simple math problem (excel calculations) even inteligent British person usually says - "I can't do that, I'm not a mathematician!".

Go figure.

In Poland mathematics is important part of the studies, it is not being pushed aside (at least it didn't used to!).

I agree with memorising tons of material and not necessarily teaching you to think thing (again, at least that's how it used to be).
