Food / Are there any Polish wines worth purchasing? [65]
Harry
I hate to read such articles... about how the domestic market is killed by foreign trade. I know something about this from being an importer of cider to Poland from UK for 2.5 yrs. Just seems to me (and I know that it is a standard *****) that a lot of these laws and regulations have nothing to do with promoting trade but only to do with govt. making sure that they make money and, often symbolically, using this right to pretend that they are creating employment. In this case, the employment means that the offices who service antique ideas are well served in their rather pointless job dealing with beaurocracy, whie the people who are actually taking the initiative and doing something useful, as in generating new ideas and trade, instead of being helped and supported in their enterprise, are rather treated as something akin to criminals and thieves and penalised at any opportune moment.
To me this is not good economics, this is mafia and militias - especially as in Poland they have yet to coordinate in any efficient way.
Want to know how much time I can waste running around taking paper from one office to another and having to actively explain what the law means to them, fight to pay them money, get fu*&^ed when don't.
It's a totally sick system, not efficient in any other way than that the beaurocracy get their pound of flesh.
Try fining and govt. office for late payment or any mistake they make - good luck:)
And...
Good luck to all who have the courage to try to do something against all the crap that is poured on us all.
