Could Poland become an immigrant country? [42]
Hi there all, sat here with currently little to do today having just arrived back from Poland. Thought I would add to this quite interesting topic; though it is my opinion that some points are not being considered.
I love Poland, I have been going there for the past 6 years now, a couple weeks or so at a time. Whilst I was there an uncle of my partner and I were discussing the financial state of Poland as regards to individuals' living circumstances and the lack of jobs available in the state.
I made a point about immigration could help solve some of the problems in Poland. What some people fail to realise is that an economy's financial state cannot move forward without more money coming into a country in some form of investments.
Now I am not an economist, but I do know a fair amount about business development and strategy, and we all know that business plays a major factor in one's economy, that's just common sense.
Without immigration Poland simply will not grow; financially, socially nor culturally all of which are traits that can give an economy financial stability, better education, though I do know the state's education is very good, but why not make it even better. Most of all however, it can create more jobs and a better standard of living for all not just the wealthy.
How I think immigration can help is the same way it has helped the West, in particular England and the US. Immigrants have come along with their own ideas and culture and diversity and moulded it to fit the society they live in. They then create companies, big and small, that pay taxes to the state but MOST OF ALL some will have links with other countries that then may wish to invest in that particular company, which in turn brings money into the country and MORE tax being paid and the MORE jobs created.
The more contacts one has with the outside world the more they will be able to attract business and investment. This could be because of the cheap labour that may exist, the quality of products within the country or simply because of the huge diversity of cultures it has helping increase tourism.
This cannot happen unless the polish people/government change their ideologies about immigration.
the majority of polish people's standard of living is quite poor, so I am told by this uncle – who by the way has just built a really nice house, so he is more on the wealthy side if anything.
Frankly, there is just huge amounts of potential in Poland but until the Zolty gets stronger the big boys will not be rushing to invest because returns are minimal. That can only happen until cheap labor comes along to help polish people build business or they allow an influx of immigrants who can bring some capitol into the country creating links with their home country. This will build the economy of Poland improving the strength of the currency. Without immigration Poland is constantly going to be left behind even though it has the potential to be on par with the likes of the western countries.
It's simple all the countries that are financially stable to some extent in other words currency is still holding up since the recession, in comparison to the zloty, they are countries that have welcomed immigration some countries have done so reluctantly.
Even polish people now are contributing to UK's economy massively as are Chinese blacks and Asians – not all I'm not that naïve :)
Essay over, all have a good evening.
