Why is Poland developing so slowly or in the wrong direction? Who is responsible ? [317]
It's interesting to note that the Western European countries which aren't EU members aren't having too many fiscal problems.
Yeah...the Swiss has always their banks to fall back to, Norway has it's oil....and Poland has?
Brussels knows best? Why would you say that?
"Brüssel" knows nothing! In case you are not aware of it but Brüssel is not much more than the meeting place of a plethora of egos. Where more often than not only the most tiniest common agreement can be subscribed to because a union of 27 so different countries is harder to lead than a sack of fleas.
In the new core-EU the countries know what they want and that they are compatible with each other in their visions, cultures, economies and outlooks.
Only those who fit in will be in!
You are right in that way that you will never made Greece to an industrial competitor...you can pump as much money as you want into an agrarian culture but it won't help much.
That's where the reality destroys the illusion.
The other alternative were that of a permanent transfer union as every country is more or less. Germany has it's Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, the US has it's Iowa, northern Italy has it's South etc..
Every country/union has not so developed territories the richer ones have to pay for. That is a given but that can only work if it's a real union/country...not something in the middle as the EU now is.
So I repeat, the EU will split...Poland has to think about where they want to be.
Is the average Pole doing better than they were 10 years ago? Of course, but then again so is the average Norwegian, Turk, Croatian, Albanian...
Nobody forces Poland to take the help, you know?
Somehow you make it sound as if the support is to blame that Poles are not living better than the Norwegian, the Turk, the Croatian or the Albanian....
Sometimes I wonder about the ways your thoughts wander! ;)
