Balcerowicz is hated by many Poles. The cost of his reforms was pushed onto the poorest citizens. Because of the mess created by him in the early years of transformation, some people are still convinced that communism was better. Real change came later, when proper regulations were introduced, and his successors cleaned his mess.
- sam_lowry_ 3y agoSame for Russia with Gaidar. Deregulation was inevitable, and people suffer if economy changes dramatically. And we always find someone to blame.
- troad 3y ago> the cost of his reforms It wasn’t the cost of his reforms, it was the cost of 40 years of communism. The only way out of the frying pan is through the fire, sadly. Blame the people who put Poland into the frying pan, not the people who led it out.
- sam_lowry_ 3y ago> 40 years of communism Don't attribute to communism what can be explained by incompetence.
- Jensson 3y agoCommunism results in incompetence, that is the whole problem.
