It is simple. It is all about support networks. I actually like the fact that the rules have been tightened. Too many get rich and cocky by getting in cheaply.

They pay sales tax, they buy stuff, go out to eat, go through toll booths. This revenue adds up.. it's kind of good thing, you know? You don't need to be an economist from MIT to come that conclusion. This was a slight to 40 million people and I'm frankly embarrased about it.


They pay no more sales tax than Mexicans. They have to shop too. You are very hypocritical and like Poland so you expect special treatment for them. Your view has no basis in logic but simply bias.

You can be embarrassed all you want. It was a fair application of the rules and you are pissed because it doesnt fit your cause.

This forum is a magnet for people who ignore reality and make statements based on some preferential BS.

Well, that's the feeling of many Poles here. That they send money back to their relatives, usually from Zakopane, and think they are great cuz they have had success in America.

I don't know what the truth is but it's plausible

Hey you live there, I'm not saying your wrong but a Pole that comes here and "makes it" did so by busting his or or her a.ss.

Now that laddie, I can assure you.

I know this one. It's from the filios school of posting. If you cant say anything that makes sense and know you are wrong you just start insulting and making comments like this.

It's also equally plausible as many Poles work their butts off abroad.

The truth is, as ever, that some get cocky and some really plug away to make a living. Nuff said

Liam Gallagher doesn't know who Liam Gallagher is at least some of the time.

as far as I know the American election system is responsible for it and the American people are as a result responsible for it, including yourself:), so please don't hide you head in a sand now:)

Now McCain is trying to play Polish card - he's issued a letter to Congress of American Polonia stating that he'll 'consider' abolishing visas for Poles.
Sorry, article in Polish

that is probably because for the first time in a ling time Polish Polonia is divided when it comes to voting in this election, while in the previous elections Poles voted mainly for the Republican party

Cheap ass tactic. "consider"....that is nothing less than a bribe for votes. When Poles fall below the illegal percentage set they will get visa free travel.

Yeah, these election seems to be extraordinary in terms of dividing people in their political sympathies (or is it just an illusion created by media ?).

Yeah... We call it 'electoral kielbasa' ('kie³basa wyborcza'). But since America is preparing to install the missile shield, our politics can use it as an argument to press on (if they have enough balls) newly elected President.

I voted yesterday. It took me two and half hours of waiting in lines, but it was sort of a festive event. Almost a party. This election will break the records in voters turn-out; there is no doubt about it.

Pro-life, what crap!! Do u really think Obama is anti-life? What's wrong with socialism? Some socialist policies would seem to be the right way forward for America. I'm not an out-and-out socialist but still...

They are allowed travel expenses.. Is that avaiable to you.?

They can take Junkets all over the world.. Can you?
