Life / Rising cost of food across the globe. How much is a weekly shop in Poland now in 2013. [53]

And salaries are low because Poland was always technologically lacking to the most advanced countries.

What does it have to do with anything you retard?Explain why a Polish dude working at FIAT assembly line in Bielsko Biala makes 1/3 of what Italian dude makes working at the exactly same FIAT assembly line in Torino?Or cashiers in supermarkets or even guys working with shovels.Do they have more technologically advanced shovels in the West? ******* retard.

Life / Polish pretense - what's the deal? [72]

Since when did people start buying baby food in Poland?

Since it was available.And it was available even before 1989.Anybody here remembers Bobofrut? If my memory serves me right HUMANA brand baby food was available before 1989 too.

Language / jeśli OR jeżeli [13]

so what's the difference between these 2 words:

jeśli and jeżeli

No difference.

Language / jeśli OR jeżeli [13]

But why choose one and not the other?

It is up to you.Just like with pronunciation of "either".Don't know how to write it phonetically but I guess you know what I mean.

"jeżeli" is more formal

It's not.
Edit:Better example would be "further" and "farther" I guess.

Language / jeśli OR jeżeli [13]

I omitted "for me" on purpose.I know you wrote "for me" but I didn't include it in quote because I was directing it at Jon and OP.

But why choose one and not the other?

You can simply pick whichever sounds better to you.For instance I prefer "further" over "farther" because I somehow associate "farther" with "fart".And I prefer " i-ther" over "e-ther" because to me "i-ther" simply sounds better.Don't know why though.

Ok,I just looked it up and here's what I found."In the United States, though, farther is more often used to refer to physical distances, and further more often refers to figurative and nonphysical distances. For example, we might say that one mountain is farther away than another, while we might say the price of a stock (a nonphysical thing) fell further today than yesterday. This is not a rule, however, and further is often used for physical distances"

I live in the US so excuse me but no difference to me!

Real Estate / The current property boom in Poland is a bubble [342]

You must not be aware of Poles refusing to lower their real estate prices, even though they're loosing money..

Which Poles exactly?It didn't cross your mind that maybe they would be losing money if they lowered prices?What you don't factor in your theory is that is not as easy in Poland to walk away from debt/declare bankruptcy as it is in the US.You made a broad statement about 38 Million of people and this as stupid as for example saying (what I often hear) "Poles are hard workers".I am not a "hard worker" yet I am Polish.

News / Poland Unemployment: Nobody protests, because people are leaving [30]

Nobody protests, because people are leaving.

Finally you got something right.

But Poland remains one of the quietest countries in the region.

It's boiling under the surface and hopefully someday soon it will explode.

The unemployment rate in Spain for University grads is 70%,

Yet,we don't see Spaniards picking strawberries in Poland.The fact is that it's better to be unemployed in Spain than employed full time in PL.Sad but true.

Well we will see what's will happen on 03/23.I am really hoping to see a revolt Iranian style with people's tribunals giving justice to traitors.And if we win,foreigners with their markets and banks OUT!

History / For what the Germans owe Poland one trillion U.S. dollars? [299]

It's silly to argue that a third party (Germany) should compensate the victim (Poland) of someones crime (Russia).

In 1945 Germany had as much to say as a Jew during German occupation of Poland.And be thankful to Soviets that they managed to finish you before Americans got THE BOMB.

USA, Canada / Why do Americans (and Canadians) hate Polish people? [226]

I suspect I am quite a bit older than you and I have never in my life heard a joke about a Polish tragedy, in America or anywhere else, ever.

Just check comments on Yahoo next time after some plane,bus,train crash in Poland or when some natural disaster happen in PL.

Polonia / Polish people working in Germany after studying in Poland, what salary do you get? [6]

Lyzko,Lyzko you and your stories.Here:from assembly worker to plant manager (highest position in company available to non family members) in 4 (!) years.He later quit because he wanted to become company chairman but this position was/is reserved for members of Auswarter family only.

Law / Bank accounts taxed by up to 10%. Can it happen in Poland? [150]

nobody knew a risky investment until it was to late, and obviously not even the risk takers (banks) themselves.

So you are saying that their (banks) management boards are comprised of retards playing with hundreds of billions but not knowing what they are doing?Like drunk children in the mist,yes?

Bollocks my friend.I still well remember a guy on TV in late 2007 talking about subprime mortgages bubble and predicting a crash.They all knew my friend but they were greedy,very greedy.

USA, Canada / Why do Americans (and Canadians) hate Polish people? [226]

This is a weird question and I've seen it before worded

It is badly worded question.I only received some hate from (TWO) American Jews.I think despise would be right word or look down.
