I always thought the best approach would have been for Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, etc. form their own bloc outside of EU, and made trade agreements between the bloc and the EU, but without becoming a full-fledged member of the EU. That way they could have pretty much reaped the same benefits, without the costs. Slavic Europe is a different culture than that of the rest of Europe, especially since the end of WWII.

LOL. Looks like it's really hard to understand why Poland joined the EU. Theoretically speaking, Poland gets more money from the EU than she pays to the common kitty. In fact, the criteria of getting money for perticular projects from the EU are so complicated that Poland is in the red.

The real argument for the EU is access to the common market. Within the common legal framework you have "complete no kidding free trade" and that's why e.g. Dell serves the German market with factories in Poland, 70% of all trade is with EU countries as well as the majority of all foreign investment in Poland. There are even common company statutes (SE = Societas Europaea, e.g. the former Porsche SE).

Tylko pod Krzyżem, tylko od tym znakiem,
Polska bedzie Polska, a Polak - Polakiem

Only under the Cross, only under this sign,
Poland, will be Poland, and a Pole will be a Pole.

LOL. Anyway, I understood pretty well.Thanks.

Sabaton - 40:1 (Battle of Wizna)

Mind the fact that those few heroes of Wizna who got to captivity never surrendered! They were collected by Germans from the battle field being severely wounded and barely alive.

This is a good example to follow even in our times when our Christian World is in jeopardy, terrorized by a Muhammadans and Atheists.

No retreat! No surrender! This is the lesson I have learned from the Heroes of Wizna.

So the have to obey the law?

Why embracing free trade must also mandate atheism and sodomy is beyond me.

It looks like they have 40 obamas in their midst. 40 out 400 and some mp’s abstained from voting.

The Polish Parliament, Seym, has stood up for the freedom of religion and for the endorsement of the values which belong to common heritage of the nations of Europe. The Seym of Poland rejects the verdict of the European Court of Human Rights banning Crosses in classrooms in Italy and calls the parliaments of the countries belonging to the Council of Europe to reflect on the issue... the 460-seat Polish Parliament... Out of 402 MPs present at the voting, 357 MPs voted for the resolution, 40 abstained from voting and 5 MPs were against.

You may well be right - I heard a figure of 650 on the radio and as we well know that isn't authoritative. But even if it is 600 it is still a lot more than others are willing to commit.
