Do you have any citations to back up that statement? I'm genuinely interested.
I've posted links before regarding this that explain how polish moving companies are booked solid and its all moving from uk to pl, how brexit has caused a huge decline in poles going to uk and an increase in poles moving back to the UK. I am a partner in a currency exchange and can tell you that pounds are our most converted currency followed by euros in a distant second and then dollars.
Not just money, its the lifestyle. Money you can make anywhere if you have the capability, but the lifestyle you cannot have with a regressive community.
That was true when poland was communist. Then people left for a better future in general - more freedom, more money, free press, etc. However many do those poles both in UK and usa are starting to move back. The immigration of poles to USA has slowed to a tiny trickle. But in the 70s 80s and in the 90s it was enormous. Then when poland entered the eu poles started going to uk. Nonetheless, much of these poles have gone to western nations especially in recent times to make money, not because they like the diversity. I live in Chicago which has more polish immigrants than warsaw. And I'm not talking about people whos great grandma was polish..im.talking about fob and 1st gen poles who speak the language and keep.the traditions. Yes many have decided to stay for good and retire in the us usually moving to a.state with low cost of living, but many poles have moved back after theyve reached their financial goals, or they move back to retire. Quite a few poles also work in the US but send money to their families in Poland.
Money is money. And the us/uk and the west in general offer more money than pl. Even during commie times young people and students would go to germany to pick strawberries
however, have a lot to work on themselves.
I beg to differ. In fact many europeans wish their country was in a position like poland. We don't have a bunch of Marxist politicians running the country and allowing hordes of undocumented migrants from the third world to come in. Other countries arrest and fine people simply for repeating facts and statistics that show migrants are overwhelmingly responsible for the huge increase in rapes, murders, violence and terrorism. Poland doesnt have that problem. While places like sweden and uk sweep the problems under the rug and refuse to properly investigate crimes for fear of being called racist as in the Rotherham scandal, poland insteaf makes videos showing that their position was correct and they made the right move by refusing to abide by the migrant quotas.
Second, our economy is doing amazing. Unemployment is at record lows and is now.among the lowest in Europe. Peoples wages are steadily rising. The infrastructure, the malls, the stores, cafes, etc are nicer than those in the us. Although the graffiti is a bit annoying. Poland even grew during the global recession while other countries like greece needed to be bailed out. Everyday more and more businesses are opening up facilities in poland. There's so many jobs and good paying ones relative to the cost of living that they don't have enough people to fill them. Lastly, poles have finally regained their balls. Maybe you dont like it and call it xenophobic or chauvinistic or whatever but guess what poles dont care. They really dont. You may not be proud of your roots and your country but the vast majority of poles are. Poles are fighters and fiercely independent. We're not going to allow for our culture and traditions to be diluted and eventually replaced by social marxists from the eu. The eu can call the 60k fascists that march on independence day but guess what we don't care and well do the same thing in 2018. Poles dont care if theyre called xenophobe or homophobe or uncultred or whatever. We know our worth and thats what counts. If xenophobia has kept poland free from having a single islamic terror attack so be it. If being homophobic was written into our constitution to prevent the destruction of traditional marraige so be it.
You know during the partition years there were poles just like you. They said that the partitions were a good thing because it made poles more 'diverse' and exposed them to other cultures while destroying their backwards slovenly ways. They didn't want any more confederations and uprisings and figured poles were better off under the thumb of the russians, germans and austrians. Those poles didn't want to see an independent poland and most poles considered them traitors. Well today poland is independent and the majority of poles are very happy where their country is. Even poles who dislike the party in power, they still love their country and are proud of how poles rebuilt their country after going through a 60 year occupation and before that ww2.
