    Quite literally, for over than the past decade, Poland (and Hungary) has been boosted by being heavily subsidised by the EU. Any country receiving over 2% of their GDP in subsidies per anum for over a decade would grow like crazy, to the point it’s no longer 2%, and yet… The real question is why are we still subsidizing Poland at this insane level while blocking the full acession of Romania or Bulgaria, who arguably, need our help much more than the poles or Hungarians do.
