News / Karol Nawrocki - the New President of Poland [381]

Meanwhile, back on topic of the new President....He is publicly saying he is against Ukraine joining the EU. As more governments turn against the EU commission, and the idea's forced on EU members like immigration policies, Ukraine will have a very difficult time getting into the EU. He is also saying he will support Polish farmers and other groups in Poland over Ukraine interests, yet he still supports Ukraine defending itself. While the guy may be an idiot to some degree, he is making some pretty fair and balanced centrist statements.

Off-Topic / Stock Market Talk and Trading - part 2 [572]

@cms neuf
People will always need gas and oil, they will always be doing home improvements or home building and technology cant be lived without. Pretty simple way to look at things. CRCL is speculative i=on my part, and IPO so who knows what wil happen. If you want crypto, thats where the big gains can come if you know what you are doing.

ICP will 5x in the next year to 18 months, VET could 10x before the end of the year, BCH is low cost way to get into Bitcoin for gambling, and XRP is a rocket on the launch pad, highly under valued for a coin with real applications already available.

Long term buy and hold:

SLB
HAL
HD
LOW
MSFT
CRCL

Personally, I bought MSFT in May of 2008 for around $28 a share. Every dividend since, reinvested in it. Stocks are not for day trading to create short term profits and get killed by taxes. I own all of these.

@mafketis
And thankfully Warsaw does not rule the country like they would like to do. Its almost 2 percent difference, a slim margin, but enough to take note of. PiS would have lost if not for 11 candidates on the fvcking ballot. Thats just absolutely retarded.

The way elections are covered - I could have sworn I was in America.

I was laughing last night. The way the goo Mayor was smiling, and Tusk was off to the side hiding. He knew it was too close to celbrate. Well at least now, Warsaw wont be the center of attention, and all the western crazy ideas will be shot down pretty quickly.

News / Presidential elections 2025 - the race has commenced!!! [665]

Tusk and Holownia lost this election. Holownia shouldnt have run, and Tusk should have kept his mouth shut. The Tusk lead colition has done nothing in their year and a half except go after PiS, spend a lot of time and money on witch hunts. Now those same people being investigated are getting Presidential pardons probably on day one. Tusk delivered what exactly from all the promises they made? Nothing that I can recall. And now Tusk and his gang are all but dead men walking with the Presidential veto hanging over anything they try to do.

News / Nukes and Poland's Neutrality [105]

More military, more nukes. Sounds a lot like Eisenhower and Krhushchev.

Poland needs a strong independent military. The EU was never meant to be one governing body that was taking over the soveriegn rights of member countries. EU law and direction should never over rule Polands laws or the direction the country wants to take. The idea of nukes in Poland at this time in history is not going to fly. Too many road blocks. If nukes were ever used in Europe, other than tactical ones, the fallout would spread across Europe. Russia doesnt want to use a big nuke unless its in a MAD scenario with the US. Putin didnt use a nuke in Ukraine these three years, the thinking that he might in the future in Europe doesnt match what we have all watched play out in Ukraine. Useless, nonsensical, and would not scare Russia at all.

Feedback / Who deserves to inherit Polish Forums? [344]

PF can be operated in a new format with modern hosting and software for about $40 US per month. If you have the right hosting and software that updates itself, it is minimal effort to maintain. The only issue is migrating all the old posts and topics to new software, not all if any will likely transfer. This is a data driven site, and the import functions on new software may not work with this. Hosting contracts with the right companies are monthly at best and annually at worst. Moderators should be volunteer, and noe should have access to any persons identifying information. PF has a long way to go to meet higher standards in many respects.

News / Coronavirus in Poland - part 2 [595]

Poland didn't follow Fauci's advice

You have no idea. Nearly word for word, and with nearly identical timing both health ministers repeated Fauci, and duplicated the US actions concerning COVID. Every country was following the US lead on it. It is after all where the vaccine funding, and two of the three vaccines came from. The CDC and WHO followed nearly everything Fauci put into the public that was absolute bvllshit. Social distancing, masks, no socializing in groups, wearing masks outisde are just examples of things Fauci made up on his own with no science to back him that the world followed. He has even admitted these things now. I hope he gets charged in every State and country possible.

The US lockdown was March 12, Poland March 20. Flatten the curve? Flatten the world economy.

News / Coronavirus in Poland - part 2 [595]

Fauci was the worlds most outspoken lockdown and vaccine proponent. He is the one person that every other country, outside of Sweden, followed advice from. He was profiting off of every word he spoke. He lied every day. More people died from being treated improperly in the hospitals than did from covid. Remember the discovery that laying people on their backs while on a ventilator was what was killing them? All the testing that we all had to pay for was a scam. People lost their jobs because they wouldnt get vacinated. Trump just restored military people to their positions who lost their jobs because they wouldnt get the experimental vaccine. This isnt some small thing that should be forgotten or pushed under the rug.

News / Coronavirus in Poland - part 2 [595]

Lets be clear. Trump did NOT create the vaccines. He fast tracked them, and nothing more. The Lockdown under Trump was based on the guidance of FAUCI, the WHO and CDC. All of whom had no science backing any of their fvcked up claims. All Fauci and the others had were "ideas", nothing based on testing or scientific fact. Fauci and the others all lied when saying the vaccines would keep you from getting covid, then it was reduced to keep you from getting really bad covid, then it went to keep you from dying, then it went to it wont keep you from spreacding, getting infected, or dying. It was all a fvcking joke and Fauci and the others profited from it. Anyone supporting any of these people of organizations now is a fvcking moron.

News / Will Poland help defend Greenland against US Imperialism [333]

Yeah and its not as if Maga morons are trying to control any of the information soaking.

You mean like the democrats did under Biden with Zuckerberg now saying the White House would call him swearing and screaming to take posts and profiles down that disagreed with them? That kind of control, or something less obvious?

@Barney
The speed of scheduling in the US is why they went. Dont know what it would be like for private in Canada, and I dont know if thats an option in their hospitals. While I generally hate the for profit hospital model in the US, in cases like this, it certainly beats anything in Canada.

@pawian
Isn't it great that I get to travel with my work? You dont like that I have insights into other countries and their people because I actually have contact with them? As for Canadian health care and traveling to the US for expedited surgery on complicated conditions, please review. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3633404/#:~:text=To%20avoid%20delays%20in%20treatment,that%20it%20works%20relatively%20well.

@mafketis
Excellent point on Quebec. I think they would prefer the tax system of the US though as well.

@cms neuf
I work a lot with Canadians, and those I know do not think the Canadian level of living is better than the US. The healthcare is a disaster. I have colleague who had to go to the US and pay out of pocket for a heart surgery that he was on a nine month wait list for in Canada. In the US, it was scheduled in a week.

@cms neuf
If you spent 2 weeks in Canada you dont understand Canadians. 4 years in the US does not make you an expert either. Like I am not an expert on Poland after six years. Do you know how many Canadians already own property in the US? How many Americans own Canadian property? These two countries could easily merge, and Canadians would be a lot better off for it. Canadians get destroyed on the exchange rates, pay much higher taxes, and have much higher inflation. Put it to a vote, and it wouold be pretty close. 5K in crypto is a lot more than I expected from you. I have been trading crypto for years, trading is different than holding or investing. Holding or investing in crypto is not very smart, it is too volitile.

No one is invading Greenland. But now it looks like Greenland will make the move to be independent from Denmark.

I think taking back the Panama canal is worth every penny. Greenland would not be an invasion, it would be a purchase. Iraq or any other war was not a full scale war. A full scale war, deveoting all of the US military, like was done in WW2, would over run countries. The difference in these little wars is that the US never went all in on any of them and they should have absolutely flattened Afghanistan and Iraq. If you dont kill every terrorist then you will only have more being born into terrorism. The Gulf War in Kuwait was pretty successful, but most dont want to remember that.

US has ten times the population of Canada and neerly ten times the military. globalfirepower.com/countries-comparison-detail.php?form=form&country1=united-states-of-america&country2=canada&Submit=COMPARE Couple that with a large number of Canadians being completely ok with joining the US and thats a cake walk.

globalfirepower.com/countries-comparison-detail.php?country1=united-states-of-america&country2=mexico Mexicans would line up to be a part of the US.

You have a very unrealistic view of the world, and specifically world military units. If the US committed to a full scale invasion to take over a country who is going to stop them? Serious question. All the little wars since WW2 were not wholesale moves to take over a country, take its resources and expand the nation.

Demark loses 600 million per year taking care of Greenland. Just a point that many overlook. Why not have a referendum? A legal vote like all the PF democracy supporters say is needed in any country. Crazy idea I know.

You obviously do not have an accountant. Any money earned in the US, when living in another country is completely taxed in the US. Whether you are in another country all year or not, US citizens must pay taxes.

You dont knw sh1t buddy. Been doing this for six year now. If you want to decline your US citizenship and taxes, its no easy process. The IRS has very long arms and those not paying while living abroad usually pay more when caught or end up in jail. Poland is one of those countries that would assist in any prosecution of tax avoidance.
