  1. Considering how close the election was, the government will likely be worried about the next election in 3 years if things get worse in Poland but for the time being, not much really changes. The good news is that Poland should consider it's self lucky it's in the EU because if they were not an EU member, the clear signs of dictatorship would likely take over Poland with the way things are going, ironically, it wouldn't be that different from when the Soviet Union had them, as it is, the EU and it's members will only allow the Polish government to go so far before putting it's foot down and that is what the government in Poland really worries about because they suspect the people of Poland will turn on the government if the EU takes a more hard line on them. But I don't think it will come to that, Poland is new to all this democracy thing just like a lot of the eastern European countries and it was never going to be easy to adapt to that as that takes time, still they've made a lot of progress already even thought they are stumbling at the moment but that just likely means the other eastern members will likely do better in the long run, especially on the economic front and that's what the people really care about.

  2. Basically it's deception to fool the people into thinking they are one thing when they are something else, it reminds me of military marches where the ones that do it like Russia, China and a few other countries do it to show power but countries that really have power don't have to show that, it's a primitive way of thinking but that's how some countries are but that is also the reason why those countries are developing countries.

  3. Not very likely, many thought that with Brexit and the UK but overall it's not really changed anything and in truth, Poland and Hungary are far less enticing than the UK was and are actually more of a drain on EU resources unlike the UK was. Basically, they are not that important to the EU overall but that doesn't mean the EU and it's members won't hold them to account if they do wrong. Personally, I think EU countries that are in the Euro are going to integrate a lot more in the decades ahead and leave the ones that are in the EU but out of the Euro behind.
