News / Polish PM Tusk- dictator or not? What Poles think? [455]

Morawiecki should be selling postcards in a post office.

So... one of them, are you?

I attack everyone equally, regardless of race and gender. I believe i have called you a lot worse :)

like Obajtek and his shenanigans?

Cherrypicking one example out of a hundred on the other side does not do your credibility any favours..

Traitors to Poland, including PO post communist boosters deserve no mercy, man or woman. Making fun of that poor prosecutor who has to run out naked to avoid being threatened by the mafia whilst ignoring the PO idiots serving lukashenka trying to run across our borders means you fall in that category.

@miloslaw they're on a higher level because they have smartened up by not going to war with each other and kidnapping businessmen. Their assets was never seized after those raids. They are making more money than ever in cahoots with the post communists since the start. And yes prosecutors (esp patriots) are still scared of them. Do you see the mafia in sicily killing each other these days, no they are running high rise construction sites and bringing in the fake refugees.

Now he can even get a ban.

He was suspended, big difference, he'll come out of suspension once the mafia case is over :)

prosecutor is supposed to work on a case

You have no proof of your claim. You just assumed it was assigned to him from a onet article. Do you know how many prosecutors there are in a town of 50 thousand people?

Another prosecutor who "doesn't want to deal with mafia"?

What has your example have to do with my point of mafia fear for prosecutors and judges? And what better way to get off the case than to be suspended by breaking the law in a minor manner but a way that gets press attention? btw that his neighbours said they had not seen him drunk in 13 years was reported on polsat news.

At least you were a bit smarter this time and did not claim the drunk on the tram was a PiS voter.
You should stop reading Onet , as i can see it rots the brain :)

Shouldn't people unable to create a viable state after 32 years

Tell me after the American Revolution, did all the americans who supported the British become the top businesman. Did the americans who supported the british remain judges and in the police forces? Or was there a reckoning?

LOL Only Cargo understands Poland and how much the criminal underworld can scare individual justices. Just like that judge that decided to get caught shoplifting so that they would get taken off a case a few years back. smart lad. Paulina the townspeople said that they had never seen him drunk before in 13 years and that he was a normal guy yet you mention ziobro. you are being a fanatical idiot again.

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [343]

it's primary usage in modern slang is as word meaning marijuana (or esp blunt).

I would find it very suprising if someone used that term for weed . skręty is the one i remember for joints. (sometimes lines)

News / Poland highest inflation in 20 years [319]

Tax cuts do not spur growth in real job creation and do not spur investment into new projects and expansion of business.

Tax cuts for the working and middle classes spur consumption and thus job creation. as opposed to corporate and high income tax reductions which you are referring to. New deal has massive investments into infrastructure, digitalisation (your cutting red tape) and support for micro medium and large businesses. You are grasping at straws.

actual forensic accounting has already proven

The same 'forensic' accounting 'proved' the same with reduction of CIP and no PIT for under 26 a few years back. Yet the reality was opposite as revenue to the cities increased. Maybe the 'economic experts' you watch on TVN24 are just PO hacks who hate PiS and Poland? Maybe you were not in Poland then to remember the same rubbish that is being spouted now.

It wont pass because the money is missing from city tax revenues

The money is missing theoretically as of course tax cuts may decrease revenue, but they also may spur economic growth boosting tax revenue, as happened the last time PiS cut taxes. As for taxing the ultra wealthy any politician that suggests getting rid of family trusts and investigating off shore accounts in the cook islands or belize will be found in a ditch, the new deal will get 2 billion extra tax of multinationals syphoning money out of poland though.

News / Poland highest inflation in 20 years [319]

As you can read Polam, New Deal has been refined with only a 5 percent health contribution, the key is removing the tax deductable part which is nonsensical. PiS has got the entrepreneur and business groups on board. "Przedsiębiorcy na podatku liniowym, będą od 2022 r. płacić składki zdrowotne w wysokości 4,9 proc. swojego dochodu, a nie 9 proc. jak pierwotnie zakładano." wpolityce.pl/gospodarka/565531-wazna-informacja-rzad-przyjal-zmiany-w-polskim-ladzie You seem to argue against higher taxes funny how new deal results in tax decrease of 16.5 billion more in citizens pockets but because it's pis you hate it hahaha

happy to take that wager now.

Genealogy / Trying to locate my grandfathers birth certificate [12]

Can it be done online?

NO. You can either fly to Poland and deal with beurocracy in polish or pay a firm like polaron to do these things for you. Do it online lol if your grandparents were born in england do you think you could just get the birth certificate 'online'?

I guarantee it will not fly as written. Another wager?

Your 'facts' seem more like delusions. Anyway I'm sure reactionaries back then said the same about Roosevelts New Deal. I already stated polish deal will grow up for the better. Since we cannot rely on Gowin , we will add some anti corruption measures to please folk hero kukiz, and make further changes wether we will deal with lewica or konfa posels who amenable to PiS plans.

The cities are killing it because it strips billions of tax revenue from the cities and it can not be replaced.

The Cities were singing the same crooked tune when CIP was decreased and tax free for under 26 was introduced, that they would lose 20 percent of their tax revenue and not be able to provide essential services, what happened? their tax revenue actually increased thanks to wise and glorious PiS policies leading to a booming economy. Now they cry wolf again no one believes them and knows polish deal will help the towns and cities as well.

I'm really into obscure/commuter cross border lines, this one between Czech and Poland (Szklarska Poreba - Harrachov) winds through gorgeous forests youtube.com/watch?v=oBB4eRztDlc. Connects with a lovely cog railway in Harrachov as well.

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

I didn't see the same outrage from you when that producer was fired for not blacking out rainbow flag

He wasn't fired, I bet he still has his job, you know why, because he would have been a martyr on tvn24 for days on end. I put Novi in his place on that or similar thread when he said if the lgbt were wiped out there would be no loss to the world. That spells out my views clearly, i did not condem tvp because enough people were doing it, and I know TVN24 would cut away to black if some polish patriot made a political statement about Doomed Soldiers or EU demagoguery instead of just singing. Besides that Slovakian hippie could have gone to the trouble of learning 6 words in polish to make her political statement.! Virtue signalling laziness

Why should I care what someone who supports

Well now you've backed yourself in a rhetorical corner maf, either u are a spineless cuck , or more likely you are unwilling to admit that all ideals have breaking points, and someone talking to your wife like that deserves a few smacks in the head followed by a frying pan or golf club, freedom of expression principles be dammed. You know sometimes it's better to put the revolver away from your forehead and admit defeat than pull the trigger and claim victory posthumously
