News / Dodgy PRL-holdover judiciary finally reformed [420]

PiS idea of court system is Kangaroo court where the verdict is in before the parties present any argument. At least now there are still come judges who wont be bullied by PiS, and Ziobro is a Fing joke. Not only do his positions create direct conflicts of interest in the performance of duties, but he clearly has no understanding of what a judiciary without political influence looks like.

Granted, the US has political influences, those are largely based upon personal beliefs or religious beliefs. Even with those, 95% of the time, judges are not swayed by "interpretation" of the law. Many times in important decisions, even Chief Justice Roberts has gone against the President and his own party in support of the law. This is what a court should be like. PiS wants nothing to do with a court resembling this value system.

News / New Polish tax system hits the ground stumbling... [14]

The bottom line is you can not tax your way out of trouble. The US also needs to learn this. The Polish scheme was created by incompetent people put into office by people who if they were more competent would not need all the social welfare programs.

News / Years of Poland in the EU - assessment of pros and cons [1199]

@Dirk diggler
Right now, gas is twice as expensive in Poland. Even with the VAT adjustment it is just under two times expensive. Your argument does not hold water. Prices in the US at $20 a barrel were much much lower, when in Poland they did not fall at all. Prices are fixed here, not fluctuating. When the state owns the refinery those costs are also fixed. In Poland it has very little to do with taxes, costs or OPEC.

@Cojestdocholery
Please explain how when oil was $20 a barrel that Poland, in the government controlled refineries, and government controlled gas stations, did not lower the price of gasoline? Can you explain why when oil was so cheap, not once did PiS controlled industry lower costs to the consumer? Instead they recorded record profits and took record salaries. Gasoline in Poland until the VAT price reduction was twice as expensive as in the US even when both countries are paying the same costs for the same oil.

@pawian
The far left is no better than PiS. Utopian existence will never happen and it will definitely never happen with forced multiculturalism, forced acceptance of gays, or forced acceptance of anything. Culturally, Poland was never designed to be multicultural outside of accepting multiple religious views. Yes there are still anti Jews everywhere, and that is something that wont go away in most places in Poland. But they will accept a Jew before a Muslim any day.

News / The ruling party in Poland tries to take American owned TV news station off the air [528]

@Cojestdocholery
Sorry, I had to take my time to get to reading your post, I was too busy counting money while watching TVN. But I will burn a $100 bill in your honor in the hope that it can buy you some intelligence in the afterlife.

Its pretty clear some people do not understand how corporate taxes in Poland work. If they did they would know, TVN a Polish company pays Polish taxes, pays ZUS and pays employees in Poland. There is no tax avoidance for a Polish company doing business in Poland with Banks owned by the state. But I only learned that with my JD that I received in community college.

You really need to get a clue and take a reading comprehension class. The ONLY thing holding up license renewal was the proposed change in the law. That was vetoed. They have no legal standing or basis to deny any renewal at this point, and any attempt would be really stupid PR on PiS part when they have enough to deal with in Spyware gate. Dont you have a bible class or something on a friday night to attend? I would think that is a PiS requirement.

@Korvinus
And PiS bought their spyware from the jews! I think PiS are in secret partnership with the jews to take over Europe with spyware and covid vaccines with nanotubes and life forms. Newsweek Poland will be running this story next week after Trump is reinstated as President of the World.

What about JK admitting to the purchase? apnews.com/article/technology-business-software-spyware-jaroslaw-kaczynski-0c41a504e8fbdbb6b9b06f6869848a48

Of course he could be wrong and just senile rambling. I mean who would admit to something after they were caught?

@mafketis
Flooding in India was the story when Duda announced the veto. It is like the old Soviet news reports. Nothing to see except what we want you to see and everything is great for the motherland even though heating prices are up 400% and inflation will be 11% next year. All hail PiS, JK is a saint, and MM could be Pope if he were not married. So fortunate to be lead and feed by the state.

You need to seek help.

@Dirk diggler
The norm in politics is to spy yes. Infiltrate the opposition. During any election this not only happens but it is expected. The problem is when the ruling party uses these spying tools without a warrant, on someone else's phone, and that person is not a candidate in the election cycle. Its no different than a hacker accessing the nudes of your GF and then posting them on line. Totally illegal.

The US, didn't force PiS, PiS forced the US to take political action against them t begin with. Point the finger and the people who initiated this action only to see it blow up in their faces like 90% of everything they do. Bad planning, bad execution and worse timing. Now all eyes are on inflation and hackergate. Really amateur hour stuff.

Only political retards would stoop to spying on the competition. And maybe now we know why Duda would distance himself and use this veto at a very critical time.

@mafketis
Pressure from the US on its largest investment of 3 billion dollars in Poland. Duda is looking out for his future and not pissing off the US business where he could turn into a high powered lobbyist after his presidency making big money luring US companies to Poland. 16K per month retirement is not going to be enough for a man like Duda, and he knows the US is where he can make some serious money.

JK is not playing chess now. PiS is under attack from every possible side. PiS is in survival mode, and this spyware case could be the end of them. The corruption from Zioboro and all of them is evident by the refusal to investigate. With inflation pegged to reach 11% now, PiS is done. Duda is planning for his future without them.

Don't care that you are keeping score. My English only comes with a graduated university degree, and clearly the education system in the US is below average, please forgive me.

This is another issue in Poland. Why does anyone think that anyone else gaf about your opinion of decency? Is Poland now the morality and decency police? That classroom must be right next to the strip club and 24 hour alcohol store.

Really hilarious to read all these amazing opinions from people who wont even examine their own faults within their own society. But hey, there is always time to go bashing on line instead of cleaning your own house.

Clearly you don't know how to speak or write English. Thanks you for making that obvious. Yes, I do speak Polish fairly well now thank you. That has nothing to do with anything though. You are more Polish because you were born here of course, I know a lot of other donkeys think that place of birth actually means they are more entitled when they have never done anything for society. This is particularly true in Poland.

The petition is not real? Say it isnt so! Oh My. How could the world come to this and with fake petitions on line now?!?!?! We must all pray this kind of thing stops right away. Get some help man.

Duda finally had a pair and now, maybe there is hope for him to fire JK and MM because he has the power to do so. Then take the last few years of his lame duck presidency and make a real difference in Poland. That would take big balls and that would be leadership that no one else in any other party offers.

Can you really be this ignorant? How much ZUS do you think they contribute in Poland? How much income tax? How many business advertisers do they impact positively driving the Polish economy? They are the largest TV network in the country. TVP lives off of billions in PiS subsidies that the taxpayer is responsible for and they still cant produce a profit. The competition is so incompetent that they cant even beat them with free money! Love watching TVP news today, not a mention of this, yet they talk about flooding in India. That is the joke of Polish news coverage.

As usual you know nothing. Discovery pays taxes and employs a lot of people. 3 billion dollars is the TVN value, the largest investment by a US company in Poland. Thats good for the country. Only backwood mountain hicks think TVN doesnt pay taxes and doesnt bring a lot to Poland. Pack a tent.

Just like Amazon, Intel, UPS, and all the others that couldn't make it in the US. It's ok. I understand you would like to make more, but being jealous is no way to improve your position. Not working so well for PiS either these days.

Always pointing the finger at the other guy and never looking in the mirror is not a way to move forward. It really is funny how PiS and its followers have not figured out a way forward when it is really rather simple for them to stay in office. Veto this law, and get rid of the disciplinary chamber and nearly all their problems go away. Money starts flowing from EU and USA is happy. They loose nothing of any worth really, and their ratings go back up with a prospering economy by the end of summer. But they are too hell bent on their own ideology to see that time is what is the greatest asset of any ruling group and they are running out.

Your country? Funny, I now have citizenship, so its our country isn't it. I am sure I also pay way more tax that you do too. VAT mafia? Not really since my company always over pays VAT. I am sure I pay more ZUS than you as well. So why not leave the commenting to people who actually help fund the countries third world democracy?
