Genealogy / Polish Romani (gypsy) surnames [64]

If your last name is Cygan then your ancestors were either Gypsies or the people around your ancestors at the time either thought they were or behaved like Gypsies.

Cygan,or variations of it means Gypsy in many languages.

History / Poland - problem for Germany? (historically continual hostility of German state on Poland) [154]

New economic order in Europe means Germany and France

I think you need to take France out of that equation.
Germany is strong and will survive almost anything.
France is weak and with so many crises tearing it apart.
Don't bank on France.

please focus on the topic, everyone

History / Poland - problem for Germany? (historically continual hostility of German state on Poland) [154]

New economic order in Europe would benefit Poland

Yes,and all the more forward looking nations.
The sclerotic EU is not moving with the times and is being left behind.

History / Poland - problem for Germany? (historically continual hostility of German state on Poland) [154]

Both parties had a mutual destruction capability

Mutually Assured Destruction.....MAD.....it worked a treat for many years.
Nobody will press the button if they know it will mean their total destruction.
I grew up under that and always felt safe.
We need to go back to it.

History / Why do Polish people hate to be called Eastern European? [120]

Blimey!
I agree with you Vlad!
The gulf is huge....yes,there are some Slavic similarities in outlook, but in the main we are miles apart.

Europe is not even a continent, but part of Eurasia

There is no such thing as a continent of Eurasia.
It is two continents,Europe and Asia.

Geographically, Ukraine and Belarus are Central European too

Geographically???
You need to get a better map......they,along with European Russia are Eastern Europe.

News / Poland in the European Union. Polexit? [559]

It's this type of arrogance at the top that turns people against the EU

Arrogance is the right word.

Do you now feel shame for ever argued in favor of EU? You feel, don`t you?

I never argued in favour of The EU and so feel no shame.

News / Poland in the European Union. Polexit? [559]

if only to attempt to tame and control our most human instinct, notably to take unfair advantage of a given situation or rest somebody else's sweat and toil to exact personal profit....

That is exactly what The EU is about.
Well said Lyzko!

News / Poland in the European Union. Polexit? [559]

the EU is some sort of conspiratorial "dictatorship", hell bent on destroying European freedoms?

Because it is!
I can't see why an educated man like you doesn't see it!
No directly elected leaders,all on massive salaries and we can't unelect them.....that is a dictatorship in my book.

Is the EU "anti-freedom" any more than the US?
Most definitely. EU is far worse.

Agreed 100%.

Disassembling the EU from within and building a simple free trade zone on its corpse would be the best option

Absolutely correct![

quote=Dirk diggler]Yup. I predict that once Poland has to pay money into the EU the support will fall.[/quote]
I posted this the other day and got mocked.

The vast majority of Poles feel otherwise

Only as long as it favours Poland........

Bad news..... The hell-born Franco-German alliance has brought back article 13

Yet another sign of how this EU wants to control everything......it is anti freedom.

the foundations of the EU are neo-marxist

Exactly,and this is the problem.

That's because they have had to work harder for it and have not had the luxuries of inheritances as the West E.U. has

Exactly!

The same way as you do.
Most people tend to be careful with their money,Poles are just a bit more careful than most.

Besides, you have a very low opinion of the Polish people as those who are only able to take but not give.

It's not a question of having a low opinion.
We all know what Poles are like when it comes to money.

But the fact is a fact.

This is true but the way things are going economically for Poland it will happen one day.

84% of the Poles questioned in that poll were in favour of Poland's membership in the European Union.

Yeah,only as long as Poland is the largest net beneficiary of EU funds.......that will change in the future when Poland start to subsidise poorer states.

I disagree...a group of people with a common goal will always be more successful than the loner

Join Pawian in his insect theory then....,..I prefer humans,I stamp on and squash insects.

Look at what bees or ants are able to do. Individual approach will never reach that level.

I think your comparison of humans to insects is frankly disgusting.
A very Socialist trait.

because collective work always brings about more effects than individual one

I disagree,I don't think it ever has.
Individuals are the key,not colectiveism.

Poles will remain in favour of The EU as long as they are net beneficiaries.
With Poland's phenomenal growth,it will not be long before they are net contributors.
I cannot see Poles being very happy about supporting Greek and Italian wasters...
