You can have a business in Hungary and still do business in Poland. ZUS is a disaster I know. But Hungary has the lowest corporate and personal tax rates in the EU. Dont know about the insurance though.

The US agenda is MAGA. It will continue to be so. No democrat will be elected running a campaign on the bvllshit that Harris ran on. The US agenda is freedom, and free market economic growth primarily. It is not a country that should or ever has until recently allowed unfettered mob violence and illegal protests. Sharia law is not nor should it ever be part of the US. The legalization of many drugs by some states, and cities is not part of what the US was or is meant to be. Denver for instance is a nightmare.
Yes, most crimes are committed by US "citizens". Those same "citizens" use illegally obtained weapons, not legally obtained weapons. The only reason you can make your claim about "citizens" is because the illegals do not outnumber the legal citizens yet. By percentage of illegal to legal though, the illegals have a much greater percentage of them who commit crimes than legal citizens. I am suggesting that any legal or illegal immigrant should be deported if committing a violent crime such as rape, robbery, murder...... Yes. Take each and every one of them and send them to the worst place on earth.
Again. Why is it that every POS from muslim, or african countries who leaves does not go to another muslim or african nation where they are going to fit in? They all go to christian, white nations and then they do not build the countries and cities up, they destroy them. That said, I would make an exception on my judgement when it comes to most of the muslim community in Detroit. They for the most part try to assimilate into the rest of the city, and they take pride in their community.
Anyone making any claim other than this has a mental problem and should be locked up for treatment.

You know what good manners and polite talk got the US? Fvcked. Thats what it got. Taken advantage of by everyone, especially the US politicians. Professionals? Please. I deal with professionals every day and their language is worse than some ghetto folks sometimes.
Solutions:
Deport every illegal
Cancel all green cards of those who do not tupport the US and its initiatives
De-naturalize anyone who does not openly support US law and nothing else if they were given citizenship
End birthright citizenship
Tariff every US corporation 100% for every outsourced labor, or manufacturing used
Prosecute corporations for excessive profiteering
Prosecute congress and senate for insider trading
Cancel all foreign aid
Confiscate all foreign owned farmland
Criminalise corporate ownership of residential buildings
Flat tax for everyone
Congress must balance the budget every year or they cannot run for re-election
Term limits
Every man who proves they are mentaly stable, and trained, should be issued a gun until the illegals are gone and neighborhoods are safe again.
While I think Poland banking has a lot of problems, at least the banks are not profiting to a sickening point like US banks. I would federalise all US banks, and no foreign banks would be allowed.
Hows that Novi?

No one is talking about private sector jobs in white collar business. Tariffs are designed to bring blue collar work back to the US. White collar jobs are definitely slated to decline as AI eliminates the need for a lot of things. The loss of 33K private sector jobs, particularly within NGO's that received funding from USAID is not only predictable, but positive news. Now some of those leeches can find a real job.

If tariffs are bad, then the EU and Canada should remove all tariffs. No one should have tariffs if listening to the economic guru's here. Canada introduced a tax on purchases made online from American companies. Trump cut off negotiations. Two days later the tax was dead in Canada. Vietnam just opened the country to the US with no tariffs while accepting tariffs on their goods to the US. Tariffs bad, so bad, Trump no work. Fvcking morons.
Americans dont GAF if a TV is an extra $100 because of tariffs. What Americans care about is the outsourcing of jobs to foreign countries that could be kept in the US, and since Trump introduced tariffs, investment in the US job market is skyrocketing.

Your outlook on life is simply not supported by facts. Your lone experience is not the majority of experiences. Bezos, Musk, Gates, and so many others made things happen with an idea and hard work. Thats how the real world is.
And btw, no one cares what the democratic far left is saying. We dont have to care, thats the beauty of freedom of speech. The USSC is made up of multiple appointments from more than one President.

Is sacrificing 5 years worth being able to give your family financial freedom? All of my children have their own home, no mortgage because I was able to do that for them. Imagine having that as a young adult starting out in life. Chances make champions. I dont understand, and have no sympathy for people who complain and do nothing about the things they are complaining about. The world is not a fair place, life is hard. The sooner people recognize this, the more likely they are to be able to compete with everyone else who wants more out of life. The idea of a free ride is a socialist idea. Socialism and communism always fail because there is no such thing as everyone being equal. Some are born smarter or more physically gifted, thats just genetics. Unless handicapped in some way, the one thing everyone has is opportunity to make choices, if you chose to do nothing, its still a choice.

All the people whining are people who want a "job". All the people winning, are people who are working one or more jobs while saving and creating their own opportunity. There are those who should be worker bee's and those that should lead. Worker bee's fill a need, but are constantly replaced.

All the whiners here on PF have one thing in common. They never took a chance on themselves. They never challenged the system, or tested the theories that were spoon fed to them while growing up and getting their grade school education. My Polish friends do not understand the level of compete Americans have, they have no clue. Ask them to work a 16 hour day for five years and their heads will explode. Tell them to take their 3 weeks vacation and use it to work on their own financial freedom, and they look at you like you have lost your mind. Then they complain about not having enough money to take a trip to the US and will go to Croatia instead.
All the people who complain about the "system" are the ones who usually want to replace that system, one proven to work over centuries, with another system that has been proven to fail time and again. Socialism is just another phrase for "death by a thousand paper cuts".

But this is the Poland USA section of the forum. So, I felt a direct real comparison was in order. I would argue that all the medical and technological advances and innovations in the US are available to every American. That is if every American puts themselves in a position to take advantage of those advances and innovations. If someone doesnt want to work, study or improve their lives, the government, medical professionals, and technology people are not required to search them out. Self reliance is one of the most valuable principals of being an American. Unfortunately millions of Americans chose to not use their ability to be self reliant.
The world is a hard place. The idea that creating soft human beings to elevate peoples conditions is contradictory to evolution of man, and machines. The guy with the spear is more likely to survive a bear attack than the guy cowering in a corner. Anyone saying or thinking that life is not like this any more is likely blind.

I dont care what color skin someone has as long as they can fit into the work culture, and get the job done. Culture and fitting in are critcal to any company having success. You cant bring in an activist and allow them to disrupt productivity.
The average monthly income in Krakow is between 7 and 8K pln per month. Two working adults, two children, one three bedroom apartment in the city center, decent area, old Podgorze, 9500 pln per month. Thats more than 50% of the combined monthly income for the average family. Now add in a car payment, and every day expenses each month and this family is broke. Comparitively Chicago, Blackhawk street $1500 a month for 4 bedroom. The cost in Krakow is nearly double after you account for the exchange rates. But you know, why use actual numbers when you can blindly complain about absolute bvllshit.

The question now is, how many Iran trained terrorists were brought into the US as illegals and how will they respond? A terrorist attack on US soil would escalate things to such a point where Trump would destroy Iran's oil sites, and cut the head off its economy. This would send the Iran people back into the stone age.

My wife said to me "Why dont you go and buy some new clothes for yourself?" I replied "What happened did my clothes disappear, or blow away while they were outside drying?" If you dont need something, why spend money on something you dont need? I dont care how much money I have, the $50 I would spend on some Levi's has value to me, and if my other Levi's arent destroyed, then why waste the money? Young people today dont want to work hard and do not understand the value of money.
That said, its a different world today, compared to my youth. Instant gratification is what everyone is looking for. Time is not seen as a commodity, and people are willing to waste a lot of it on pursuits that have no value.
Unless its a home, if you cannot pay cash for it, you do not deserve it. I only exclude homes because real estate costs are out of control everywhere. My neighbor has a new Mercedes with a monthly payment, and a 30 year mortgage on his new flat. He makes good money, but not great money, and he has loans for the work and materials used to finish his flat. Making 20K pln in Poland per month is pretty damn good, but with payments like that, along with supporting a family, he is lucky to have anything left at the end of each month. I just shake my head on these issues.

That said, its a different world today, compared to my youth. Instant gratification is what everyone is looking for. Time is not seen as a commodity, and people are willing to waste a lot of it on pursuits that have no value.
Unless its a home, if you cannot pay cash for it, you do not deserve it. I only exclude homes because real estate costs are out of control everywhere. My neighbor has a new Mercedes with a monthly payment, and a 30 year mortgage on his new flat. He makes good money, but not great money, and he has loans for the work and materials used to finish his flat. Making 20K pln in Poland per month is pretty damn good, but with payments like that, along with supporting a family, he is lucky to have anything left at the end of each month. I just shake my head on these issues.

1946 to 1979 DOB account for 70% of Americans. The hostage crisis, Jimmy Carter and Reagan learning is mandatory in every US High School.

Ask how many Americans hate Iran for the hostage crisis and you will find an overwhelming majority remember and still hold those views. As the right questions. Biden committed to Ukraine, the US did not. A vote should be taken on that one and I guarantee it would lose.
@Barney
We know you hate the US. No one cares.

It should have been done the day Reagan took office. So yes, I think Americans would support it, if the messaging were right. Pictures of those hostages in the news? Left wing media would get all over that. The democrats would be the problem though, Ukraine is their poster child.

Bar room talk is talking about making a deal with extremists. The only way to end the problem is to actually end the problem. Extremists never change their views unless it is to become more extreme.
The Shah's son voluteered to go back as part of a transition to a democratic government. The fact that citizens of Iran do not have the balls to simply end this regime says a lot about them as well.
