  1. I’m a Canadian currently living in the south of Poland and moved in 2021. This graph does not take inflation into account. In 2021, everything in Poland cost 50% of what it did in Canada. Now, everything in Poland costs 75% of what it does in Canada. Annual inflation has been 17% over that time period, while it was about 6% in Canada.

  2. Have a fresh capitalist economy after 44 years of communism

  3. It’s easy to look comparatively good when your starting point is so bad.

  4. Looking at this graph I think it’s pretty funny now that Tusk was memed to death when he said that we are going to be “second Ireland” 15 years ago.

  5. Poland is still a developing country in terms of economy. And it’s still catching up to countries like Canada. Far developed countries will have much lower growth than a country like Poland.

  6. Start low with a weak currency, become part of a weathy union, receive billions of dollars from that union for free and transfer them to your country.

  7. If your per capita is 15k then 50% growth is + 7.5k
    If your per capita is 60k then 15% growth is + 9k

    If you build NPP in Bagladesh then +1k per capita will be +50%. If you do it in germany then +1k is almost nothing

    So it all comes down to your current level. It is like digging a mine. If you are one digging, you move 1m per day. So then someone just walks through mine and says “it was easy, I did it in one minute and it took you 2 months”
