Hundreds of thousands of immigrants from outside the EU were admitted to Poland for the PiS, and it is not Ukraine or Belarus, but much more exotic directions. Politicians of the right can tell that legal immigrants are good, and the problem is those illegals. This is simply a false narrative, the best example of which are Western European countries whose societies have just been destroyed by legal immigration. In fresh years Poland has become the mark of mass economical immigration from erstwhile USSR countries, as well as South-East Asia, Africa and South America, which brings with it a number of challenges that can negatively affect our economy and society. Here are any key problems:
Slowing down wage growth
With more labour supply, employers have little force to rise wages, resulting in stagnation or even lower earnings for their native workers. Data “Remuneration study in manufacture 2024” Grafton Recruitment shows that in sectors specified as construction and manufacture (i.e. those with the top influx of immigrants), wage increases were lower compared to sectors with little immigration. Studies conducted by the British based on data from 1993-2017 indicate that an increase in the number of abroad workers can lead not only to a decrease in the rate of wage growth, but even to a simplification in wages among the professions that immigrants perform. It is in practice the celebrated phrase that "immigrants do works that Poles do not want to do". That's a lie, it's just that immigrants do it at a lower price than they should be making money for. That's what happens with couriers for an app or taxi drivers.
Higher property prices
The influx of immigrants importantly increases request for housing, which clearly leads to an increase in property prices. presently there are over 2 million foreigners in Poland. Their presence in Polish towns is of course uneven, they mostly in large metropolises. In the 10 largest cities in Poland, real property offers in the last 10 years have more than doubled, from PLN 5 1000 per m2 to PLN 11 1000 per m2. On the another hand, erstwhile we look at any region or municipal cities, prices below PLN 5 1000 per m2 can inactive be experienced. This is mostly the consequence of mass immigration into our country. Along with the value of the property, rental prices are besides rising, creating a barrier to life improvement of many young Poles. Today, our own flat in the state city is simply a form of luxury.
Crime problems
Migrant crime continues to increase. In the media, we have seen an increase in information on 1990s robberies in fresh months. Hammers attacking a cantor in Szczecin, a knife in a bus in Siedlce or a gang torturing people with hot irons in Lublin – all these are examples of migrant crime. According to authoritative police data, 1 in 10 Georgians in Poland has been accused of committing a crime in our country. In Warsaw we have a contender for the first no-go zone. The alleged bay of red pigs has turned into working hotels for immigrants. Residents are afraid to walk in the evenings, they regularly witness fights, fights and alcohol libations. At least erstwhile a year, we look at images from France, where cars are on fire or there is simply a riot erstwhile a teenage black gangster is shot. It is worth remembering that most of these conflicts are committed by legal immigrants from the second and 3rd generations. Children and grandchildren of those who “handily work and pay taxes” are besides more susceptible to muslim extremism. Mosques in Europe are besides a large cluster and a hatchery of extremism. 1 of the leaders of the muslim State Abdulkadir Mumin admitted that he had taken extremist teachings at a mosque in Sweden.
Costs for the State budget
Those who believe that migrants "save the pension system" are making a very large generalisation, which is not necessarily true. The University of Amsterdam has analysed the influence of immigrants on public finances over respective generations. On the basis of public data, analysts assessed the cost of immigration over the period 1995-2019 at EUR 400 billion. They estimation that the Netherlands will spend another EUR 600 billion on migrants over the next 2 decades. Whether the Netherlands has earned or lost on immigrants depends on the origin of migration. On average, Western immigrants make a affirmative contribution to the state budget of €25,000, and non-Western immigrants cost €275,000. It's not just the Netherlands. In 2023 alone we spent PLN 415 million on Ukrainian children. fresh costs besides arise in the wellness or education sector, in the end all immigrant (and family) working legally has access to a wide scope of public services.

Other social costs
Since more immigrants mean more request for public services, we can't be amazed that we have queues for a doctor, and in large-town kindergartens we are moving out of seats. This happens despite the mediocre fertility of Poles. In September 2021, the average waiting time for a specialist visit was 2.9 months. By November 2022 it was already 4.1. This is the consequence of an influx of people from Ukraine. The year of the year is spectacular, but the waiting time for a doctor will extend with the increase in mass immigration to Poland.
Slowdown of innovation in the economy
Researchers from the Centre for economical Thought, authors of the large paper "Migratory Under the View", have shown through various studies that mass immigration, especially low skilled users, has a negative impact on innovation and modernisation of the economy. Entrepreneurs utilizing inexpensive labour do not request to modernise their production lines or search for fresh technologies. If a given model (a inexpensive physical work) works, they do not see the point in changing it. The increase in labour supply is not conducive to the automation of the production process. Why is it worth talking about now? due to the fact that the Sejm is working on a package of laws which aim to facilitate immigration to Poland. The government of Mateusz Morawiecki undertook to implement the National Recovery Plan (KPO) which included http://m.in.: "reduction of administrative barriers to abroad employment". The number of migrants is inactive increasing, as is the scope of directions of their origin. If we do not halt this, we will become a country akin to Britain, France or Germany. An extravagant place with immense social problems. We don't want this kind of Poland!
