Researchers from the Center for economical Analysis CenEA looked at the taxation program of Karol Nawrocki. They've taken into account proposals supported by the PiS presidential candidate like: raising the second taxation threshold to PLN 140 thousand, PIT 0% for families with a minimum of 2 children and benefits from household benefits for entrepreneurs.
They concluded that these promises fit in 2015 run strategy of Andrzej Dudaand at the same time they are clearly targeted at the richest.
"The average benefits of farms belonging to the richest 10% of the population are about PLN 580 per month, while the poorest 10% would not actually feel these changes in their portfolios” said the authors of the study.
The difference is more felt erstwhile it comes to families with children. Those that were qualified for the group of richest farms would gain on average PLN 1080 per month. However, they belong to the group of poorest farms — only six zlotys a month.
Nawrocki's proposals cost PLN 15.9 billion per year
Amount The government would gotta allocate PLN 15.9 billion per year to support families in the form proposed by Nawrocki. According to CenEA experts, these measures would let for a threefold increase in the amount of taxation relief for children in the Polish taxation system, which, as highlighted by researchers, would bring more benefits to families with the lowest incomes, PLN 150 per month. By comparison, the wealthiest families would then gain PLN 285 per month.
In Nawrocki's taxation proposals seniors were omitted. To this social group the presidential candidate, as Karol Nawrocki wrote on his website, directs the promise to value pensions.
‘In the end, remember that The government and parliament are liable for the taxation policy, which must accept any proposals for legislative changes by the President. The success of the future president's proposals in the area of socio-economic policy will so depend on his cooperation with the parliamentary majority," the authors added in a summary analysis.

The data utilized in the analyses came from the Home Budget survey 2023 and was made available by the Central Statistical Office. The conclusions are based on the calculations made by the authors utilizing the SIMPL model.
