If you shut down whole industries so unemployment rate is 25% people are scared of organizing strikes.
Then suddenly foreign capital comes, re-opens shut down companies and magic happens - it wasn't worth to shut it down, Polish people can just work as hard as foreign, but they are just scared of striking.
If this company is owned by foreign capital it is and this is called post-colonialism and it happens in Europe as well. Standard foreign citizens have nothing to do with this, just the politicians.
I don't agree. Polish Government is under attack by the western propaganda because it finally wants to remove the post-colonialism which started after Communism collapsed. How would you explain that food prices are almost same in Tesco or Lidl in Germany and in Poland but a Polish cashier earns £400 a month and a German one £1200?
You can build whatever you want but if you don't tell anybody you'll fail.
There are hundreds of successful companies with rubbish products but great business connections and marketing.
