Life / Poland needs more immigrants and their children - which nationalities are the best? [518]
I warmly invite you to come and settle in Poland. Acquaint a pale-skinned blond female, fall in love with each other and have 8 children with her. Raise them as Polish patriots of American origin. There are quite a few inter-racial marriages like that in Poland, but we still need many more.
I am new to the site and just wanted to take the time out to introduce myself to any of you who may be interested.

Life / era chamstwa - era of boorishness? [5]
I agree and think this is a good example:
:
More and more one hears Poles talking about boorishness (chamstwo, schamienie) engulfing all aspects of contemporary life, and some even speak of "epoka chamstwa".
I agree and think this is a good example:
Tusk tried to score points and win future votes at the so-called 'women's congress' aptly held in Stalin's Palace of Culture.

It is more or less about this:
4. Poland has far too many early retired pensioners and pseudo-disabled persons, far above the EU average and a resulting average retirement age well below 60, similar to Greece and Italy. Many of those "pensioners" then go on to work in the grey/black sector of the economy, thereby making zero contribution to the State budget as they pay no taxes or social security contributions while at the same time milking the budget for all its worth.

True, but in good times.
Besides, the main problem is that PiS doesn`t want to throw off the rucksack. They even want to add new stones into it. Their economic program is purely socialist.
Have you ever seen a socialist government which developed a country?
True.

You might have noticed that he is appearing in the media more frequently, and that is probably one of the reasons, he thinks that Tusk will step aside in 2014.
