just released report by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development on quality of life in the 34 Member States, which leaves no illusions – Poland is in this respect only 32 place worse than we are only Turkey and Mexico.
OECD is an organization of 21 countries belonging to the EU (with members EU does not belong to her, Lithuania, Latvia, Cyprus, Malta, Bulgaria, Romania and Croatia), and some countries outside the EU as Switzerland, Norway, Israel, United States, Canada, Australia and said Turkey and Mexico.
The study was conducted in 362 regions of these 34 Member States (in Poland in the 16 provinces), and the various aspects of life and also factors defining its quality was assessed from 0 to 10 points.
studied until 9 areas of life or factors determining its quality: the quality of education and safety – these areas in Poland were scored highest, respectively 9.6 points and 9.5 points, on average, access to services – 6 points but the quality of health care and clean environment are assessed far below 2.8 points and 2.9 points.
Even worse rated employment and wage levels and so. community involvement respectively 2 points and 1.5 percentage points and 1.3 percentage points, and even dramatically access to housing only on 0.3 points.
downright embarrassing for our country is to assess the labor market, and thus the level of unemployment , the wage level (one of the lowest in the surveyed 34 countries), and the housing situation even calls for vengeance.
These estimates were made as a love emphasize the rulers (in particular President Komorowski and Prime Minister Tusk) after 25 years after his release, and after 10 years of our membership in the European Union.
Same European funds over 10 years our membership has been issued nearly 500 billion zł, had to accompany them after at least 25 percent. national measures in the form of so-called. own contribution and that they were mostly of investment expenses.
In addition these expenditures were made under investigation by OECD fields, which would call into question the effectiveness of projects co-financed from European funds.
The consequences of such a dramatic situation with regard to the labor market, wage levels and access to housing experienced by mostly young people, and hence even their mass emigration decisions and unfortunately often permanent.
In this situation, you may not even enjoy high evaluation of our education, because by OECD we have it at a good level (estimated at 9.6 points out of 10 possible) but for the most part we educate young people for the rest of the world.
Recall only, that according to the GUS , at the end of 2013 years beyond the Polish were 2 million 130 thousand of our citizens who have emigrated since the opening of borders in May 2004 after our country to EU .
They travel mostly young people. For more than 2 million Poles who have left our country in recent years, about 1.4 million people 39 years of age including nearly 230,000 are children under the age of 15 (and thus leaving the whole family). As calculated GUS the largest group among the more than 2 million Polish immigrants are people aged 25-34, which is close to 730,000 , and so more than one third of all these benefits are out of our country.
This is the group that recruited from vintages in which a total of Poland was born 6 million 850 thousand children, which means that emigrated from Polish 10.6% of all people born then.
That report OECD is a kind of summary of the seven years the coalition governments Platforms and PSL u and nothing here will help spell on the green island and accumulated nearly 20 percent . increase GDP . The quality of life of Poles to be the worst in Europe, and hence the mass emigration particularly the young, well-educated Poles for public money.
