Life / What's wrong with Poland? I don't see anything. [121]

The ponzi schemes of social security/pension programs based on notions of infinite population growth are doomed to failure sooner or later regardless. As an "educated" person in the modern age you no doubt believe in peak oil and human caused climate change, therefore a declining overall population should be seen as both desirable and inevitable. Either populations shrink via birth control and social engineering or they shrink during a mass die off when the Earth cannot support its human population.

So immigration solves no long term problems while, in fact exacerbating much more significant problems than propping up ponzi schemes.

Meh. If you don't pay your taxes in the u.s. they put you in jail. Government is no joy to deal with anywhere on Earth. But in poland I see a relatively weak and unfunded government compared to the overbearing mammoth bureaucratic Leviathan nanny/police states of the Anglo-sphere.

All I've learned here is that English speaking Americans of vaguely Polish descent hate Poland for reasons they cannot explain. And here I sit, drinking a Polish beer in Warsaw enjoying a great time in a great country, perplexed by your baseless disdain for a great land and great people.

Fuzzywickets ignored and blocked. Trolling is truly the international language. Keep it up though kid, your not bad.

As for the rest, what impressed me most about Poland wasn't the women, but the extreme level of individual liberty enjoyed by the polish people. I guess I am more sensitive than most to personal liberty as I am old enough to have watched it noticeably and steadily decline in America over the course of my life.

I'd rather be impoverished and free than live in a gilded cage.

Let me backtrack and say that I am not here to defend Poland. I was only there 10 days and many of you know the country much better than I. So I accept your criticism of Poland and suggestion that I may be viewing things thru rose colored glasses as they say.

This notion that acknowledging differences between the genders is bad and "sexism" is part of the politically correct West that I disagree with. In the West society struggles to destroy gender lines which I find extremely unnatural and disgusting.

I'd be semi-retired in Poland. If I wanted to work I'd do contracts in the U.S. for $75 an hour. I admit that it sticks to be poor anywhere and it's good to be well off anywhere. But if you're going to live roughly the same lifestyle either way would you rather be in Krakow or some shithole like Baltimore, Philadelphia, Detroit etc. I don't think many of you appreciate just how ****** most American cities are. And just how poor most Americans are. Very few Americans have a passport or ever travel by aircraft.

And things are only getting worse in America by the way. And unlike Poland there is no national identity or cultural unity. If things get bad enough I expect tribal warfare along racial lines, and everyone has semiautomatic rifles. So think about that for a second. Chicago alone has had over 300 gun murders so far this year and the police chief there calls it "tribal warfare like I saw in Iraq."

So...that...or Poland? And by the way I've been to Italy, Austria, Germany, Mexico, and ALl over the U.S. and they all suck compared to Poland. Unless you're just a consumer sheep that thinks life should be a giant shopping mall.

Good question. I think people matter more than incomes or material possessions. I guess some of us are rejecting consumerism and materialism in favor of "people" as you say.

As for the rest, given the choice, would you rather live with/around beautiful and feminine women or fat-ugly-masculine women like in the West? The choice seems clear to me. Maybe you don't appreciate the women in Poland because you think they are representactive of the global norm (they aren't).

People are what make a country what it is. Not buildings. Not corporations. Not monuments. Not even language. It is the people that matter most of all, and I'm saying Poland contains the best people I've had the pleasure of meeting.

News / THE ARMY OF POLAND - THE REALITY [493]

Germany has been occupied by the U.S. for 67 years. There is zero chance they will become an independent actor whilst occupied. When the last yanks leave Doucheland, then you can start to worry.

Russia does whatever they want as a nuclear power. Given the choice between WW3/global nuclear war and sacrificing Poland, "the West" would absolutely sacrifice Poland. At the end of the day each sovereign nation is on it's own and must be able to secure that sovereignty via force.

I just spent 10 days in Warsaw, Krakow, and Zakopane. And my question is, "what's wrong with Poland?"

Everything was great. Nice people. An abundance of beautiful women. Modern convenience when desired. So what's wrong with Poland? I don't see anything.

The culture seems to encourage early marriage and family formation so Poland is full of Polish people instead of Arabs and Mexicans like the West. Seems like heaven on Earth to me. Although I guess I did miss the "thrill and excitement" of worrying about being shot in the face for my phone like in America, but I digress.

Tell me the dirt on Poland before I quit my 34,000 Zolty a month job and move there to live off my savings in Poland.
