      What happens when a country liberalises its economy after decades of communism, receives EU funds and keeps control of its monetary policy. Not a surprise, not a “miracle” or anything of the sort. It’s just the pendulum swinging back.

      Large population and geographic position make them have comparative advantage compared to other former socialist countries. It’s everything but a surprise

      I welcome this news, and now encourage all Polish economic migrants in Western Europe to return home and enjoy the benefits of this glorious success.

    4. Is it such a big surprise?

      With education and institutions becoming closer to their western peers in quality, they are basically western europe with lower salaries.

      There is no market where good quality for low price is shunned. They have room for catch-up growth still. At some points, demographics and locals’ demand for QoL will cause the same problems, as in Western Europe.

      They also have the benefit of being the largest among their peers in CEE, so they combine the shared attractiveness for export-oriented businesses with the largest local market. Followed by Romania, which also grows fast, and Ukraine, which could have been No.1 in the region but got screwed over by lack of EU membership and Russia.

      Let Poles and Czechs have their decade, they deserve it, the 30s might be Romania’s and Ukraine’s IMHO

      Poland is just catching up with rest of Europe thanks to investments from other EU countries, connection to EU market and funds.

      Might reach the level of Spain / Italy sometime in the future but also might hit the wall very soon thanks to declining population.

      Not a miracle, there isn’t anything special that Poland did, probably just used correctly the opportunity that showed up for them.

      Step 1: Bash the EU but take hundreds of billions of euros of their money.

      Poland is just an outsourcing country like Romania… what are we even talking about 🤣🤣🤣

      Its not at all surprising. 

      You see this often with countries that went through communism, the cost of living is brought down and so its profitable to operate and then grow. As long as you dont let corruption and stupidity get in the way, you should grow very rapidly when you start with an efficient and low cost infrastructure.

      Nothing at all. Two of my assistants are Poles.

      100,000 Poles marched today in a protest that has been wisely reported to have been anti-immigrant in sentiment, and anti-migrant sentiment runs through Poland like letters through a stick of rock.

      I see a massive hypocrisy there:

      We all know that when you suck the living shit out of other people through tax, you indeed prosper.

      Before them it was Ireland. Before them it was Netherlands.
