Work / Are Poles workaholics? [164]

The growth in Poland is due to the one factor that has both blessed and cursed it; geography.

Our geography didn't change in 1989. Economic and political system did.

a degree of jealousy

Jealousy?

35 years ago we were a grey, sad, post-communist sh*thole. Today we caught up with Japan in GDP per capita. I don't know if there is any other country in the world who achieved a comparable progress. It is others who should be jealous of us.

News / Poland National Recovery Plan - KPO funding [40]

There's no way that's a good approach.

Definitely not a good approach: give tons of money to politicians and government clerks to hand out as they see fit. What could possibly go wrong? And the money is a debt on top of it. Have we really become as retarded as a society to accept this?

kurwa how it hurts

Woe to those who steal, for they shall stand before the judgment seat of God.

Do not regret that you have not stolen. Rather rejoice.

Poles are among the best-looking, most intelligent and humble people on earth

What do you mean 'among'? We are the best looking, most intelligent and humble people on earth.

There are, of course, nations that also possess the qualities of intelligence, humility, and good looks, but none combines these three qualities to the same extent as the Poles.

You annoyed me with this 'among', Skobel. When you get your brewery back and hook me up with a lifetime supply of free beer, we'll call it even.

News / Will Chinese soldiers be stationed in Poland and Europe in 10 years? [63]

China won't even talk directly to Poland

You underestimate China's wisdom - they even talk to smaller countries directly, and 66% of their rail cargo traffic to Europe goes through Poland, so I doubt they would want to snub Poland in any way.

Just wait.

Wait for what? All the data is available NOW.

The most important thing: don't call Poland "Nigeria" over some f*cking peanuts money, you Australian half-wit.

just wait till the citizens have a peek

The citizens, and the press, and the opposition parties are already "having a peek" constantly because all the data is available online under the link I posted in #4, and nobody contradicts Tusk's numbers.

The government is inept and the whole concept of KPO is flawed, as Iron said, but this "affair" is nothing special and you are getting excited like a schoolgirl about it.

Get a grip of yourself.

no the website has is not working

Yes, it is working perfectly.

kpo.gov.pl not working

Dude... the website is working perfectly. Check the link I posted in #4 and stop embarrassing yourself.

I don't trust those numbers.

It's a good rule of a thumb to never trust government's numbers but these are freely available online and neither the opposition nor the press contradicts them.

difference of opinions between you and Kurvinus

Tip for the future: any time that such difference of opinions between me and another poster arises, it means that I am right and the other person is wrong.

this scale of corruption

But I just told you the scale, can't you read? 0.5% of the funds allocation projects weren't properly checked, 99.5% were allocated correctly.

It was more about loose control than corruption, and even IF all these doubtful projects were about corruption, it's still only 0.5% of KPO funds. Half-a-fuckin-percent, Amiga, and you are calling Poland Nigeria because of it. Ridiculous.

Perhaps you might want to consider being loyal to Poland (whoever happens to be in power at any given moment) and not to your favourite political party, and consider not sh*tting on your country because of some peanuts money.

Now, f*ck off.

Why

Because after all the drones fly and after all the bombs fall, someone still has to physically come here to occupy the debris.

The arms will be needed to drill this someone the second arsehole.

@Iron

I agree with you about the EU funds, and I have been saying the same thing for ages.

What I disagree with is Amiga sh*tting on Poland and calling us Nigeria because he doesn't like Tusk.

I don't like Tusk either but Poland is more than Tusk, Kaczynski, PSL, PiS, Konfa or any other politician/party.

News / Poland National Recovery Plan - KPO funding [40]

Out of all the KPO funds those wrongly allocated for idiotic projects like yachts, winter gardens etc. were about 0.5% (around €250 million).

Because of that the manager of PARP, Katarzyna Duber-Stachurska, is already fired and the ministry launched an extensive investigation into the affair.

So only a retard would say that...

Poland under Tusk is Nigeria!

... because 99.5% of KPO funds were properly allocated and there are no doubts or complaints about those projects. Sure, it would be nice if it was 100% but we are still not Switzerland.

However, and I would like to stress it again, it takes a special kind of retard to call Poland Nigeria because of 0.5% of wrongly allocated funds.

Lech will be better off playing in Europa League or even Conference - more possibility of getting points to country ranking for Poland and victory bonuses. In Champions League they would be whipping boys.

F*cking UEFA is going to punish them for the "Kosovo je Srbija" banner :( Hopefully they won't close Lech's stadium for European home games.

News / Abortion still under control in Poland - part 2 [379]

not logically or scientifically

Logically and scientifically like justifying murder by the fact that the victim wasn't "aware someone was trying to take their life"?

Face it, Lyzko - you're a retard.

Killing a child in school takes the life of an innocent, living being

Just like killing the same innocent child in its mother's womb.

who is aware someone is trying to take their life!

Oh, so being aware is the deciding factor. Interesting.

So, what if the murderer approaches the child at school quietly and shoots it in the back of the head, so that at no moment is the child aware that "someone is trying to take their life"?

You people (pro-abortionists) are seriously f*cked up in the head.

That is correct. A creative owner can have a club consisting only of Bulgarians or the Irish if he wishes - from the football point of view they are not foreigners in Ekstraklasa. xD

News / Karol Nawrocki, the New President of Poland, Sworn In [12]

Wasn't my candidate but now that he's the President the past is forgotten and hopefully he will turn out to be worthy of the office. He can make up for his doubtful past by being a good president.

As for the rest - what Iron said.
