Letters to the editorial board of Angola (05.01.2025)

New Year's best wishes.

There is simply a time erstwhile the head of state wishes the citizens of Poland to celebrate Christmas and fresh Year. We are pleased, but not all of them come and effort to be digestible to all recipients. possibly politically neutral wouldn't smuggle a cynical message or ambiguity in a transmission. possibly we could accept wishes from an athlete or an uncharted actor who could scope the hearts of most Poles. Since the anti-government presidential message will go in the ether, and no uncertainty wishes with honey on their lips from presidential candidates for the "loved" voters, I make apolitical wishes the most..., first of all to citizens from the groups of the most...

The least-paid, i.e. 2.5 million surviving in utmost poverty, and 17.3 million surviving below the minimum social poverty, I want wellness and perseverance in pursuit of a dignified life with an elevated forehead. The most many professional group: 2 million retail employees, including the most undervalued cashier/sellers, I want that you would never gotta owe customers a penny. Enjoying the highest social trust: firefighters, paramedics and nurses, I want that the tears of your saved people should be only tears of happiness. Representatives of the most popular profession – programmers, I want that the introduced artificial intelligence can “sew” the human heart. Most hardworking – miners, and the most tired after work – teachers, I want you peace in comfortable armchairs and warm slippers with your favourite drink in your hand. The most stressed – urologists, I want only pure, healthy and cured sewage in patients' bodies. To representatives of the most different profession, the tanatopractor, or posthumous stylist, I want to accomplish the effects achieved by the deceased before his death. Working in the most dangerous profession – lumberjacks and snake maturers – I want you the chance to change to: bed tester, live advertising, culinary criticism or computer game tester. Most people who die at work, but inactive alive, or farmers, want you a 100 years. I want you the same as I want to customers who consume your meat products, i.e. health. The best-dressed in work – representatives of uniformed services – I want constant social respect and memory that the uniform at work can be dirty, but cannot be fattened. Working in the most boring profession – data analysts – I want you a fun day after work. Representatives of the most paid professions – cleaning and protection workers – wishing health, I sincerely feel sorry for them, just as the least-paid inhabitants of Podkarpackie voivodship in Poland.

I want readers and editorials of ANGORA and representatives of all unnamed professions (including those who die) all success in 2025. I want ANGORKA readers employment in the sweetest profession – chocolate tester – and success in preparing for work in the most wanted professions: carpenter, carpenter, roofer, metallic man, electrician and electromechanics, electromonter, physiotherapist and masseur. JOHN

PS Politicians, i.e. people who belong to the most disliked by Poles, want in the election year to go to the head and not to enter voters in d..., due to the fact that it is simply a pity for stressed urologists. For your many years, address the inhabitants of Biedańska.

My beloved country...

...a beloved country, beloved cities, and villages... We remember this beautiful song by Tadeusz Sigietyński. due to the fact that we love Poland. And the 1 last night with the commune. And this 1 present – free. Let's start with a small memory back to the times of the commune. You wanted to buy something. There was a problem – even erstwhile you had money.

You wanted to go somewhere – besides a problem. Organize something – as above. regular life wasn't easy. But, aside from peculiar cases, no 1 went hungry, no 1 slept under the bridge, no illiteracy was eliminated. And it was definitely a plus. And the others? For almost 20 years I worked in an institution where my direct supervisor was the manager of the office, at the same time the secretary of the organization organization (PRC). I've been a nonpartisan my full life.

And there was average cooperation! I besides had neighbors, members of the PZPR – average people! Nothing unusual, but... What about free Poland? What PiS does all the time is simply a horror movie. Now, luckily, in opposition. But their governments led, among others, to the fact that many Poles simply hatred each other! And it's not necessarily friends and colleagues, even in families. Something terrible! In fact, the name of this organization is hilarious.

I wrote erstwhile before that Janusz Korwin-Mikke invented for them the name Populism and Socialism. That would make more sense. Of course, you should be glad that the commune is in the past. But the Law and Justice must be kept in mind: this organization is capable of all the worst. The Komuchs are nothing. small seeds. To conclude, I want the editorials and readers of ANGORA the best in 2025. KRZYSZTOF WASNIEWSKI

On the Kremlin's leash

The last day of 2024... Bales and fun in a larger or smaller group of friends and acquaintances, as everywhere in the world. But it is worth considering with what and with what hopes we enter this 2025 year, which will end a 4th of this century. It is certain that Donald Trump will be sworn in as the 47th president of the United States. It is uncertain who we choose to be our president.

Whether, like America, the dark people choose an uneducated savvy (like Trump) or make sense to finish repairing our political democracy – and, by the way, to find out if the president chosen by us is sometimes on Putin's leash. I am impressed with Yuri Felsztinski’s book “On the leash of the Kremlin. Donald Trump, Dmitri Rybolovlev and the offer of the century". Just due to the fact that we have any respect for D. Trump, due to the fact that we spend more on armor than they do doesn't mean we're safer ourselves. Further – a model of the writers – we show on tv (16.11.2024) the first trailer carrying a Korean K2 tank with a Korean driver sliding off a trailer in Braniewo. Or with crew and ammunition? State secret.

Putin, trained in the KGB, educated to perfect the ability to “bite” the weakness of the man he talks to. He doesn't actually talk, he just recruits people. As a capable kagiebist, he knew everything about Trump. He was the boy of a wealthy, murmuring businessman, and he was curious in young sex and money. Now possibly in the other order, with an emphasis on money. He's been to Moscow respective times and always in the same hotel. Knowing his weaknesses in applying for a visa, gathering compromises (from Russia – compromising materials) is simply a part of cake for Putin's services. From Putin's point of view, all foreigner who accepts large sums from the authorities of another state is an agent. In Europe: Zeman, Orbán, Schröder, Marine Le Pen, and in the USA – D. Trump.

It's just a substance of price. Is he spinning his nose? Then we'll give him more! Putin has long considered and continues to consider Trump as his agent, and sooner at a gathering in his tibia he will kick him than he would agree to halt fighting in Ukraine, not to mention withdrawing to the border before 2014. He bought it for himself in 2008, specifically buying from him for a large amount of money his villa in Florida, which he demolished anyway.

Putin's goal was to get him out of financial problem and then push him into a political career – vide interference in elections. And he did it. He's got it for the president's office twice. The average voter from Nevada or anywhere else cares about abroad policy as much as our “Piekłasiewicz from Piej Wólka”. Sam Trump said: “If I had killed individual on 5. Alei, I would not lose a single supporter”. What about his office? "Intellectual dozen" as in our PiS. For example, his safety advisor, Intelligence General Michael Flynn, was in attendance with Putin at Russia present in 2015.

He then received hundreds of thousands of dollars from the Russian authorities – read Putin. Secretary of State (foreign diplomacy) Rex Tillerson worked in Russia for many years. Is he an agent? According to Putin, yes. And Elon Musk, who virtually bought himself a place in the White home to fight government waste. He's dangerous adequate that he can turn off his Starlink satellites erstwhile he wants (even for Putin's money). He had already tried it on the Black Sea, paralyzing Ukraine's anti-aircraft and anti-ship defence for a fewer hours. Putin, on whom Trump has never said a bad word, will now request Trump to pay his debt.

What can Trump do? In fulfilling the promises of "America First", it can importantly reduce the supply of arms and ammunition to Ukraine and "Let Europe deal with it, due to the fact that it is war on their territory." It is possible (which he has already repeatedly announced) that he will take any of the atomic arsenal from Europe. If he does, Putin will sacrifice Belarus (he has already moved atomic missiles there), he will strike from its territory to the southwest (meaning us), cutting completely Ukraine from European aid and... the war will win.

What should the pro-democratic president do? Already in the election run to give a clear and clear signal to the US about the request to increase the component of INLAND WARSK in our territory by at least 5,000 soldiers – and immediately. That's all we can do, and we have all right to do that, since Trump likes us so much, due to the fact that we're giving him jobs in his weapons industry. Our choice in May will be 1 – either peace or war. BLOOD

Homo sapiens – is it?

Errare humanum est, sed in erare perseverare diabolicum – in Polish: “Myssing is simply a human thing, but being on the incorrect is devilish” – Seneka. Man aspires to a reasoning species throughout the ecosystem. As the most developed animal, he can not only usage instinct, like another natural beings, but he has reason, which is to think. That's why it's called homo sapiens. Therefore, why for Christmas pleasures “kills” trees/choins – see, for example, the Thinkenian park in Zarabie, whether it is massively tiring and killing carp. It makes the ecosystem cry, in my opinion. Flowers teach man, in my opinion, to receive the beauty of nature mainly during the period of flowering and then breaking them up I understand. They teach sensitivity to all beauty, including man - made beauty. I think the singing of birds, the murmuring streams, the sound of the wind teaches us how to receive music. Without them there would be no soloists and orchestras.

I justify the selective shooting of terminally sick animals or cutting down dead trees. But doing specified things without hunger and coldness is clearly a rape of nature. Especially erstwhile this is done for simple fun or stupid satisfaction based on unusual and unobserved ethics (so-called hunters or alleged anglers). The cruel mindless killing of animals is simply a scandalous fanatic of people who think differently. It's just that many people think it's primitive. For example, hunting quads with headlights to blind animals with the engagement of minors or playing with caught fish, and after taking pictures with her, releasing her generously is besides cruel infantility. These people don't do it out of hunger or in request of clothing!

Every animal has a place in the food chain. At the end of it, he's thinking, man. It's absurd to live in a crazy fanabria in the name of any absolute. There can be no specified ethics as allowing a man to be a wolf. Cutting the fir to usage for Christmas decorations is simply a simple folly, due to the fact that it is possible to illuminate surviving trees, and where they are not there, to usage artificial Christmas trees, like in many localities, e.g. in the Senice market. Let us use, as homo sapiens, the light of head all day, not just since Christmas. JERZY KRIGER, Myślenice

Approaching 1.0.

In 2023, the number of children (and the number of births per year and the average number of women of childbearing potential) in Poland was only 1.16, and this year it is expected to fall to 1.10–1.12. There are less and less children born throughout the European Union. Given the full continent, it is only worse in Malta and in the war-stricken Ukraine. We are approaching countries where fertility has fallen below 1.0, specified as South Korea, Chile, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Thailand. This is simply a slippery slope from which to turn back would be very difficult.

There is no uncertainty that the alarm should be struck, but is beating enough? Something needs to be done. Is there any chance of breaking the trend? It seems you gotta try. CEBOS studies show that only 6 percent of men aged 18 – 40 want to stay childless. As far as women are concerned, investigation shows that 68% of Poles aged between 18 and 45 do not want or do not know if they want to grow a family. Those that are definitely on no However, fortunately, only 10% are surveyed, justifying why they do not want to have children, most frequently mention to individual reasons.

Some simply “don’t like children” or “too much responsibility”, others like “comfort” and “independence” or “too soon”. The focus of criticism on fertility is directed against women. We remember, for example, the famous: “Children are not born, due to the fact that women are necked.” In the meantime, erstwhile examining children, the function of men in the full demographic process is not full noticed. In terms of popularising the improvement of demography, attention should be paid to the request to share responsibilities between both parents. There's no uncertainty about it. I would like to draw attention to 1 issue that concerns the comparison of kid rearing at a time erstwhile children were born a lot in our country and what is happening today. The request to “care” for children has increased disproportionately.

Children request much more time and attention now. Unfortunately, it falls on women's shoulders very often, due to the fact that not all have grandparents to help. Besides, grandparents – due to the fact that grandchildren give birth to mothers at an increasingly later age – are besides getting older and the degree of their aid is limited. At a time erstwhile I and my generation were raising children, the time of the children was organizing and filling the school much more. Today, English classes, tennis, swimming are organized outside schools, which requires additional time, for example, to deliver children. I just spoke to a single mom raising 2 kids.

This lady, just due to the fact that she does a free profession, can “take over” everything. So, can it someway lead to these additional classes being organized in schools? Even if not by the school itself, it is in her rooms and in specified a way as to relieve her parents of having to leave work and work. Our moms worked, sometimes very hard, and many hours all day, and we were at school. We remember that the birth rate increased – unfortunately, only temporarily – after the 500+ programme was introduced. Initially, the program was criticized for only affecting the second kid in the family, now, if there are critical voices, it concerns that families do not disagree in wealth.

So I have a proposal to discuss. How about that society, in the interests of its future, bears more of the cost of surviving for children who are just born? Thus, for example – leaving today's benefit – introduce a "new generation+" programme in which a kid born would be guaranteed an additional amount, at least the second 800 PLN per month, to gain age. Budget expenditure would not initially be advanced (but fewer children are born), although it would undoubtedly grow in the following years. However, since, at the same time as old age, higher comparable vintages would fall out of the 800+ benefit, the increase in expenditure in subsequent years would not be so drastic. I think it's all of us, as a society, in the end, to pay off. I would love to hear the criticism of this idea, but only from those who are trying to become parents. ALEXANDER POPEAN

Blueberry, butter and wines Tuska

O You can compose it indefinitely due to the fact that it's a guy you can't just discuss and lock in a drawer. This individual has an extraordinary gift of amazing public opinion with his thoughts, resulting from the simple fact that his level of stupidity is constantly expanding and, interestingly enough, the end is inactive not visible. There have been rumours late that president Kaczyński may have put him on as a presidential candidate, which may have softened his vanity.

However, it fell on Nawrocki, called Novgorodsky. However, the fiend never lets himself go. Especially his stupidity. He late stated that if Trump won in the US, the full Tusk government should resign. Wouldn't the top philosopher come up with that? And recently, at 1 of the meetings of the writing act, he demonstrated a box from which he pulled... a lump of butter. Butter, which costs as much as 10 zł, which is, of course, to him not only the responsibility of Tusk, but besides the collective defeat of the full government, which, of course, should not regulation and immediately resign. Like any government that can't control the price of butter.

There are 2 points here. During my visit to Auchan, I found butter for 8.5 PLN, and in the residential store even for 7 PLN. Butter, not masmix. Of course, there are 10 zlotys, but does anyone order individual to buy at this price? And is anyone able to separate tastefully from Mastinian butter? I'd like to meet a specialist like you! possibly that's what Bliss is, I don't know. Second thing. In nostalgia behind a government that affects the price of butter, Błaszczak clearly longs for the past era. No wonder, specified a classical apparatusist would feel as good in the Polish United Workers' organization led by Gomulka as he feels well in the Polish United Law and Justice organization led by Kaczyński.
