“The Brilliant” Kaczyński

Polish politicians are constantly addressing issues that polarize society, 1 of which is the question of the parliamentary mandates of Maciej Wąsik and Mariusz Kamiński. Meanwhile, crucial matters for the future of the country are being brought to absurdity. In November 2022, during a gathering with voters in Elk (or possibly alternatively activists of his organization primarily) Jarosław Kaczyński was asked about "planned further support for familiesIt’s okay. ”

Then the president of the Law and Justice said he was not a supporter of “Very early motherhood‘because ‘A female needs to grow up to be a mother‘. – But by the time he's 25, I'm a bit of a joke, but it's not a good forecast on these things. – he said. That angered many women, which is hard to blame. Is that how the PiS treats the hard demographic situation in our country?

Tusk about demography

Although the fact is that the demographic crisis in Poland seems not to be spending its sleep with politicians, 1 can find Donald Tusk's message on this subject. Even during the election campaign, during the gathering with voters in Kleosin (podlaskie province), he stated that “Poland Unfortunately, she is in 1 of the worst situations in Europe erstwhile it comes to childbirth‘. He pointed out the request to supply decent conditions for raising a child. – This should be and will be 1 of the first tasks of the fresh government to guarantee that there is not a single municipality in Poland where there is no nursery He promised.

Tusk is aware of the problem, so he observed:

I'd like to say a fewer sentences about the problem, possibly the most crucial one, although we don't think about it all day. Do you know how many of us there will be, Poles and Poles, and to be precise, Polish citizens in 70 years? Demography is not divination, demography is not economics, where sometimes Mr. Glapiński could be incorrect all day for 2 years and erstwhile he predicted what would be next period alternatively than 70 years. But demography is something that no 1 can fool anyone..

However, the Polish authorities are inactive not doing adequate to counter the demographic crisis. Those words fell in the campaign, after the election, silence fell. But let us mention another message by Tusk from the already mentioned gathering with the electorate:

More or less, we know how many people are born today, how many mothers and fathers there will be in the future, and how many grandchildren, great-grandchildren in the next fewer decades. In 70 years, about 28 million of us. And that is assuming that different groups of people will come here anyway. Nevertheless, this decline in numbers will be so dramatic. These are global forecasts, these are studies that apply to all countries and Poland is unfortunately in 1 of the worst situations in Europe in terms of fertility He commented.

Thus, Prime Minister Tusk realises that in a fewer decades Poland will "shrink" in terms of population, the point is that the government (everybody, regardless of the values they have been professed) should think long-term to fight this problem in a decisive way, for the time being can be disappointed.
