Don't be so pessimistic, Outintheyard.
Everywhere will be those and those.

It seems like everyone thinks that if Poland becomes more western, it will somehow be a turn for the better. Just look at Germany, Britain, or the USA; all these nations are suffering major economic problems which I assume will explode within a year, they have problems in medical care, and not to mention they're all being invaded by foreigners on a daily basis but no one seems to care which further exacerbates the conditions. Becoming more "western" will eventually destroy Poland from within in the same way other more "developed" nations are suffering. ¨
Well, first Poland will benefit. But after a boom comes a stagnation or even a recession. Later Poland will also have a crisis like the other european states have already. That's clear. But in general I think for lot's of people the conditions will be more attractive, although there also will be some loosers and everyone will also have to pay a high personal price.
I hope in five years Poland will be a more independent nation which will be able to stand up against these usurpers of power who lead some of the most powerful nations on this world. I hope some sensible people come into power and finally fix what is plaguing the nation so far, such as social welfare and the health system and more far reaching potential problems like the membership in the EU and eventual immigration from the non-Slavic East. And most of all, I hope it will be the nation it once was, great and strong and admired by all.
This I hope also. We can pray for it.

Poland like the UK has the majority of its laws made in Europe. The EU standards are being employed and the future of urban Poland is that of Germany, France, Holland and the rest. It will just take time, however, the financial commitment by the EU over the next few years is large.X Billions of Euro's, this will stimulate private investment and Poland will turn into another Eastern Tiger...this time in Europe. Golbal brands and companies will absorb the markets.
This I think, too.
