Polonia / Let's talk about Sweden and other Scandinavian countries [236]

Novi, there are (often) lies, damned lies, and then there are stats. Never confuse mere facts with truth:-) @Tacitus, you didn't reply to my query regarding Germany's asylum and immigration policy in comparison with Sweden.

The Swedish Model has been under considerable strain for some time now. Rather than being crushed under the weight of excessive gov't spending, I believe the challenge has been the lasting effects of Reaganism on struggling socialist democracies.

Perhaps, but although it's been a while since I was last in Poland, according to recent webcam footage, the old, drab architecture has changed considerably.

An arsenal of Polish though is certainly indispensable, with or without the Black Market:-)

Coming from an Anglo-Saxon culture, I can imagine that a formerly Black Market culture could be extremely daunting, to say the least.
