News / Demonstrations in Poland in defence of democracy. [2554]

Another good day of pro-democracy protests

I hope it wasn't too cold, will be much easier in the summer for you guys. It's a bizarre hobby but people like different things.

it comes from the fact that for a long time, the opposition to PO came from paid-for activists who were bussed into Warsaw.

I'll give you all the money I have if you can prove it with some evidence.

So funny, are you going to ignore it again? :-)

He is seen as kind of hope for better tomorrow.

He is indeed, me and my whole family voted for him in the second round!

Yes, stuff is definitely happening - for instance, many teachers are supportive of KOD because of the current government causing absolute havoc within education.

No matter how optimistically you put the current events into words the PiS will be ruling for another 4 years and your pseudo activism is nothing more than an immature person's hobby but each to his own.

Meanwhile, behind the scenes, we continue to work on the real projects.

"We"? :-) appart from going to the marches and writing about it here you have nothing to do with them which is not a bad thing ofcourse.

Life / Should I expect racism as a 'black' woman in Poland [149]

Person Two: "Oh stop playing the race card!"

What a dumb example you gave

A real example:

Two police officers get the call about the robbery near by. The person calling described the thief as a black man in a hooded jumper. Police is driving around the robbed house and notice black man in a hooded jumper, they get off the car, stop him and ask him for the ID and then he is screaming "it's a racial discrimination, you stopped me because I'm black!"

And that's playing the race card rozumiemnic, I'm surprised that something like this has to be explained to you, if it was InPolaska that would be expected but you?

Life / Retiring in Poland [39]

Of pension?

There is also the issue of political uncertainty, you have no idea what the current government will do

They can't do any worse the the last government can they?

Law / Biggest supermarket chains in Poland vs Germany [23]

the retailers will adjust the prices to maintain the profit:/

They won't because in that case they will "loose" too many costumers and that will definitely effect the profits. The main bosses will have to buy for themselves slightly less expensive ferrari at the end of the year back home in Germany.

foreign supermarkets pay much higher tax, both in absolute terms (something like 10x the amount paid by Polo, Stokrotka etc) and as a perćentage of the top line.

But no link? how typical.

foreign supermarket chains don't pay taxes in Poland. That they avoid them using some legal tricks. I have no idea whether it's true or not.

Unfortunately it is.

My advice to any Black or dark skinned foreigner is choose some better place.

Good job, now make sure you post this word of advice in a African and middle eastern forums too.

Well, the thing is, like with the stupid levy that Pi$ have put on the banks this will only end up costing consumers more.

You are very wrong, why foreign supermarkets are supposed to pay less tax than smaller local ones because that's the case at the moment.

In a century or two there wont be a Britain but an island of foreigners.

Indeed, they most likely will share the same fate that happened to the Roman empire, they vanished because of foreigners.
