I express to reminde the the Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Finance and Chairman of the Economic Committee of the Minister's Council, was Mr Leszek Balcerowicz then.<br /><br />And referring to the above Strategy, there are some of "uncertainties and threats" for the Strategy accomplishment. And there stays just as following:<br /><br />"<i>O niepewnościach i zagrożeniach niniejszy dokument wspomina przy okazji dyskusji o uwarunkowaniach zewnętrznych i wewnętrznych realizacji Strategii. W projekcji zaprezentowanej w załączonym dodatku zakłada się zmiany wzdłuż trendów, z pominięciem wpływu krótkookresowych zaburzeń zarówno po stronie popytowej, jak i podażowej. Ale nawet w odniesieniu do tych trendów niepewności dotyczą przyjętych założeń o wielkościach parametrów, takich jak współczynniki kapitałochłonności czy elastyczności cenowe i dochodowe na różnych rynkach. Parametry te były eliminowane w oparciu o instniejące dane za ostatnie kilka lat, ale takie estymacje obarczone są znacznym błędem. Najpoważniejsze niepewności i zagrozenia dla realizacji Strategii są jednak głównie innego rodzaju. W odniesieniu do czynników wewnętrznych dotyczą one głównie takich kwestii jak istnienie dostatecznie silnej woli kontynuowania niezbędnych reform ze strony elit politycznych oraz możliwość wystąpienia nadmiernie roszczeniowych żądań ze strony wpływowych grup społecznych. W odniesieniu do czynników zewnętrznych największe zagrożenie wydaje się być związane z możliwością opóźnień w kalendarzu wchodzenia Polski do gospodarczych struktur europejskich.</i>"<br /><br />That's all. Just all on uncertainties and threat, making not mention, that all of that is completely mumbling and new-talks (nowomowa). Mind you translate that Balcerowiczian propaganda, please? I may assure you, that most (as not the all) of that Strategy was mistaken, faulty based on mumbling and new-talks propaganda.<br /><br />To the most expert as Mr Balcerowicz was portrayed, there are no mentions ans assumes on rapidly incoming economic slump and even post-accession recession. Why? Just because "Washingtonian Consensus" governed then. No doubts, questions, reflection and alike.Marcinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2650609952674727820.post-29290579845797451672013-04-25T19:42:02.948+02:002013-04-25T19:42:02.948+02:00Catching up!

Jacking up interest rates was necessary to combat inflation and had little impact on economic growth. I consider these moves correct, while the scale of current monetary easing, despite record-low inflation, is for me excessive. But bear in mind my views on monetary policy have always been hawkish. I can't help it.<br /><br />Hope you had an interesting debate this morning.student SGHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01367244307612092688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2650609952674727820.post-17033177380971696802013-04-25T09:23:37.444+02:002013-04-25T09:23:37.444+02:00Anonymous.

Luckily Kaczynski was in power for only a small period of time to do any lasting damage to the country if you ignore the deep divisions between those who just get on with life and those who are comfortable with balming anyone other than themselves for their own relative failure. But hey Kaczynski is a past master at "wywracanie kota ogonem" - turning the cat upside down. Which is not to say that I am overly impressed by the current track record of the government. It's just that the alternative is too horrible to contemplate.AndrzejKnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2650609952674727820.post-65336744644294764112013-04-25T01:34:52.073+02:002013-04-25T01:34:52.073+02:00Kaczynski is talking about the level of governance...Kaczynski is talking about the level of governance not about the economy. And he is right. Tusk's gov is the worst since 89.<br /><br />Tusk's gov is lazy, corrupt, arrogant, ignorant and incompetent. What keeps Polish economy going are hard working Polish people and EU money, not Tusk. <br /><br />And if you want to compare Poland to Hungary, do not forget how many uneployed Poles left the country already. 10.6% is a pretty shocking number in that regard...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
