Poland's jobless rate fell to 18.8 percent in April, from 19.3 percent the previous month, according to government data released Wednesday. The Central Statistical Office said the April figure compared with a jobless rate of 19.9 percent in the same month last year.

Well, another myth which you spreading all the time is simply untrue.

Really? All the time? Seems it was no myth as of last year. Just an update in statistics. Congrats, you finally fell to below 19% unemployment. Time to brag to everyone.

I guess this proves that socialism works. Look ma, it's only 18.8% now! Talk to me when you get below 10%.

Good for you! Can sincerely say that.

What I do wonder about is that discussion. Does jobless rate decrease in Poland mean that it will increase in Russia? Obviously not. Why do we have to keep threading on water: Poland-Russia, Russia-Poland, Poland-Russia.

For me (I do live in Russia) it sounds like when someone on FR speaks about Polish achievements (even of minute ones), it somehow swings a discussion towards the same old song.

I repeat once again. If Poland managed to decrease jobless rate - good for her! If my neighbour makes his living better by working hard, thumbs up for him!
