The ultraliberal economical program of Grzegorz Braun ?
Przemysław Załuska
The Patriotic and Catholic presidential candidate proposes an ultraliberal economical program, in the spirit of laissez faire, borrowed from Protestants and older brothers in faith. It proposes dismantling the state by taxation elimination (PIT, CIT, ZUS), undermining the material foundation of the existence of the national community and the state. It is in fact a program that is far from Catholic optics.
Nobody likes to pay taxes, they always, under all circumstances are “too high”. For example, she felt that Polish nobles did not want to defend the Republic of Poland ... with known effect.
The taxation strategy can be reformed, tried to reduce the burden, it can be proposed to replace any of the burdens with another (e.g. CIT with turnover tax), but simple taxation elimination besides means the liquidation of the state, and not only the waste of its apparatus or possibly unnecessary functions, but besides the elimination of these vitally crucial ones.
There is simply a Catholic economical program, and not, it's not a post-sobor program, not even corporateism, but a program formulated by the best economists of its time, scholastics specified as Leonardo Lessius, and then thinkers specified as Bishop Ketteler or Heinrich Pesch. It leads to the fact that markets are useful erstwhile they are attached to beneficial activities, taking into account the common good.
Liberalism proposes a paradigm based on dogmatic belief that whatever actors do in the free marketplace is always good...
We know from experience that this is not the case. We see the destructive power of corporations today. If you let companies to add chemical poisons to food, they, in the face of competition to reduce costs, will do so at the expense of consumer wellness – see US casus. If you let companies to monopolize the market, they do so, then inflate prices and at the same time lower quality. In any situations, in selected markets, state ownership can produce better results than private ownership. The key here is to think about the common good. This category should be close to Catholics, but in our national circumstances, after decades of liberal propaganda, this is not the case.
As a result, the professed Catholic presidential candidate proposes in the economical sphere to think of Poles as a tomothed mass of individuals jumping down each other's throats, who have nothing in common. How does that relate to the imagination of the Nation, the Commonwealth, the Tradition? "Conservative Liberals" like Korwin Mikke showed, besides on a individual example, that it cannot be that man at home declares morality, attachment to values, religion and community, and at work, in his company, becomes a greedy predator without conscience, due to the fact that specified an attitude is offered to liberalism. Eventually, in order to be the latter, he must reject religion and morality besides in the home and in the individual sphere.
It's time to yet exorcise liberal measures and reject liberal pseudo-dogmas in social life and economical practice. At least on the side that's patriotic and Catholic.

I'm kind of relaxing, do I explain:
Grzegorz Braun according to Vici is simply a Polishman by education, director, screenwriter, academic teacher and publicist.
He's not an economist. nevertheless – if he had power [when he has power? ] – I think he will surely let real, patriotic and talented economists to make economical decisions. We had them in the last 30 years, and we inactive have a lot. I am certain that we are not threatened with "simple taxation elimination", and if he said something like this – he has misappropriated – in a hurry of debate. He is surely an enemy of the corporate dictatorship, but he will gladly turn economical decisions into the hands of people, tiny communities, entrepreneurs. erstwhile upon a time, long ago, I had the chance and the pleasance of talking to him about it. He's a state man, so we're not in danger of dismantling the state.
May he and his squad yet present a full economical program! And put it into practice.
PS. Let's not mix JKM's actions and views with GB!!
