PiS to impose blanket retail tax in Poland [291]
Then is then, now is now.
I try to avoid contact with bench warmers as all they are looking for is 2zl for a loaf of bread. Of course when they get it they run off and by cheap wine. I once offered one some fresh bread and he threw in down on the ground in disgust.
As for Jelenia Gora, I have moved away from there but really its a hot bed for crime in the region. In the city itself avoiding evening walks down ulica grodza is paramount, especially where the lockups are. This is known as the bermuda triangle of jelenia gora, stuff there disappears never to be seen again.
Petty depends on who is in questions. The guy that steals a can or beer or a yoghurt for 3zl might not think much of it but if 5 or 6 people do it every day then thats 1000zl losses for the guys shop. Now thieves arent stupid they now go for chocolate and coffee which is expensive and easy to przehandlowac (brillant word) for alcohol. Here you are talking about losses of 10-15zl a pop. So it adds up. Not so far from Jelenia Gora is a small town where locals took apart an old council building, literally raising it to the ground. Many of those involved were gypsies but just as many natives looking for a quick buck. You cant fault the enterprise just why cant these people apply it to an everyday job.
