2009 Quality of Life Index
Priceless :-)
According to geniuses who made that ranking Poland has economy which
allows comparable quality of life to that of Armenia or Venezuela. We are
worse, however, than Angola, Trinidad & Tobago and even India (where
600 million people have to defecate in the street because they can't even
afford toilets).
We could also have better climate - with a score of 76 (on level par with Mozambique)
we are no match for countries like Uganda (80), Botswana (81) or Slovakia (81) not to
mention climate-giants like Zambia, Algeria, Guatemala or the leaders - Zimbabwe.
As far as risk&safety are concerned - it's good to know that we are on level par
with South Africa and Brazil (86), but I think we could try to catch up with countries
who are, at the moment, safer than Poland (like Namibia, that with the score of 93
sets the standard for us to imitate :)).
I can't believe that some people are getting paid to make and publish such
nonsensical rankings :)
