PiS in power have an array of strategies to follow - one can be involving people as much as possible in the matters of the state on every level - I am not saying this is what PiS is likely to do (on the contrary they are quite prone to elitism and partisanship themselves) but times change and if PiS forms government maybe it's gonna happen
I doubt it, to be honest - PiS, despite their claims of being for the workers, the poor, etc - have never really involved such people in any sort of decision making. Look at them even on local levels - it's all the educated elite that actually do things. I had a quick look through the PKW site for the education of their candidates in the last elections - and even in poor areas, it's all people with "higher" education.
You can't spin it anymore into "young people don't vote PiS", so you try to spin it into "yes but they are... uneducated", trully hilarious. Have you ever wondered why all these charts with division of voting prefferences by age group/area/education etc. disappeared from the mainstream media ? No ? I'll tell you why, becasue they don't fit the pro-PO stereotype anymore :)
Or because...there hasn't been an election to analyse such things? There was analysis after all the elections last year - what more do you expect?
And I never said that young people don't vote PiS - there are plenty of angry, uneducated young people who think that the world owes them a living. They have, and always will vote for such parties.
Fascinating :)) I will have to print it and put on the wall in my office as I've got quite a few PO voters, who leaves exactly at 4PM and won't lift a finger until I force them to actually do something.
Are you sure they're PO voters, or are they perhaps PiS voters who won't admit to voting for them? Quite a few of them in Poland.
PO offers stability for public workers, heavily corporationed trades like lawyers, real estate people etc. and last but not least, for current pensioners, the whole OFE swindel was about stealing from young productive people and giving to pensioners.
Strangely enough, you've just described PiS. PiS won't touch public workers (the State is Good, remember?) - they won't touch any corporations who support them, and they're all about stealing from workers to give to unproductive PiS voters. If they were so pro-business, where are their proposals to reform pensions to make them fairer to the current generation?
Bascially, it offers cozy and quite life for those affraid of competition from young and ambitious people.
Ah yes, that's PiS in a nutshell - their support of big, inefficient State owned enterprises is exactly that.
All typical young, well educated and ambitious young person in Poland can achieve right now is 10h a day behind the desk for 2500 PLN a month.
If so, why do I know several people under the age of 30 who earn just under 10k a month working in finance? Why do I know plenty of people earning ridiculous good money in Warsaw under the same age? Heck, I know several guys who started their own business not so long ago who are pulling in 6-7k each a month - and I know several young people who earn 4-5k in "normal" jobs. Then again, they've all got one thing in common - they're willing to work for it instead of complaining that the State isn't providing for them.
BTW should be fun to watch all these ultra-feminists, trannies, "open gayes", fanatical Christianophobes, drug dealers, criminals and other freaks Tusk-made man Palikot is going to push into the Sejm. Finally Europe will be proud of "modern" Poland :)))
It'll be funnier to watch PiS disintegrate after Kaczynski has his 14th electoral loss.
It is another lie by PiS. Everybody knows they are not able to promote individual involvement which would be fruitful for people and the state. Quite the opposite. What they do well is the ability to gather people for various crazy projects like a night torch march to the Presidential Palace.
If they genuinely think PiS will protect them - they need to look at who makes up PiS. Where are the uneducated people? Where are the poor people? Eeemmm.
Maybe all is not lost! PiS appears set to win next Sunday's election. The latest Homo Homini party-preference poll by Homo Homini shows PiS wwith 29% and PO wtih 30% support. A forecast shows that PiS will win by a fraction of a percentage point.
The anti-PiS opposition has 70% of the vote. Still a loss.
One thing is certain - the centre-left is going to win big in this election.
just seen an election ad by Palikot - he hits Tusk pretty hard ('Poland - a green island? - Don't believe Tusk') - Palikot is gonna take a lot of votes from SLD but also a serious amount from PO
The way he's going, he could easily take up to 15% in this election - which would be shocking, but also a sign that many young people are fed up of "Solidarity moustache" politics. I know quite a lot of people who are thinking about voting for him, simply because they're sick of the same old Solidarity/PZPR dinosaurs.
