@stewak2@mattyglesias nice economic boost, but just small part of 35 years success.
Migration was not an issue for most of the time, as Poland was just too poor to attract immigrants.
@stewak2@mattyglesias But actually main thing is that this success is 37 years of work. Immigration is an issue for maybe last ten years and mainly PR in the begining . In 2014 our great debate was about few thousands immigrants. In 2022 we accepted about 2 millions (mostly Ukrainians). And it was
@stewak2@mattyglesias All of this is center-leftwing govt. So only last 3 years.
Previously hundred thousands visa were issued and control was mostly theoretical.
And even now this huge surge off deportation is like few thousands a year - not even close to 1% of immigrants.
@gfbmojito@mattyglesias Poland did not have tight immigration control. Our right wing govt was selling visas to Asia and Africa like crazy. It changed when they were replaced by center-left coalition...
@RobWigley2@Never_Hedgee@mattyglesias Poland always met 2% NATO criteria.
And we were buying mostly American equipment.
So money were going from Poland to US, not the opposite way.
@cafreiman No, it won't. It might give them possessions that Elon has and you don't, but it will not give them what his wealth is giving him - advantage against common people.
He can buy POTUS, he can buy mothers to give birth and raise his kids, he can destroy lives. Like Rockefeller
@rwlesq They also set a precedent that gives the Trump team full immunity for whatever they are doing. However, this only applies to those who remain loyal to him until the end.
@SebAaltonen We will get them soon. Ai bubble will burst and all this stuff will be cheap again. For a while.
The prices and progress will come back to normal.
As it happened already before.
@johnloeber You draw the line in place where people don't want to live their anymore. Not everyone wants to live in Manhattan,some people will prefer commuting from suburbs.
Also there are a lot of reasonable lines that you can draw and are not just detached houses only.
@metakognita W ciągu ostatnich kilku lat zarobki nam wzrosły dwukrotnie. Mamy z czego spłacać.
Ale ciężko liczyć na to, że za kolejne kilka lat znów tak wzrosną. No chyba że ktoś wierzy, że w ciągu 10 lat przegonimy pod względem zamożności USA.
@Ike_Saul MY bet is that in few years it will be hard to imagine how to work without AI. In the same moment a lot of people will cry how they lost all their savings in "AI bubble".
