Initially a lot of Polish people went to the UK to work but Poland is now developing fast and they are starting to move back.
and wheres that money coming from to develop them?
Next in queue will be bulgaria, czech, slovakia, romania, turkey, albania & any other former red curtain country you want to add.
Countries can become richer without others becoming poorer.
The cake can become bigger. That is capitalism.
If you were correct, then we would all still be farmers.
That has nothing at all to do with what your quoting me for.
Simple fact is, the more developed nations we have, the higher demand for goods & services. The trees will need to be chopped down for furniture, the more Ore will be needed for Iron, Steel, Copper products. The more Oil will be needed for Fuel, Heating & Electric.
Like ive said, Our fuel prices are high because of the Emergence of China - The War thats going on does have an affect, but if the war ended tomorrow, prices wouldnt fall back to where they was before all this gulf nonsense started.
India & China both have populations of over 1 billion (1,000 million) Each.
The Whole of Europe is about 750 million & Africa is about 1 billion also.
India & China are developing faster than anyone else.
Probably where we at now is that around 1.5 billion (my estimates) live in world where we have choices for groceries, buy what clothing we like, Cars, heated homes, etc. - Fully Developed Nations.
In 10-20 years when the rest of Eastern Europe catch up along with the vast majority of russia, india, china, turkey, etc. we would be looking at nearer 5 billion. more than 3 folds where we are now. plus the billion or so still left in africa who are also bound to develop out of 3rd world poverty & into the 2nd world.
Do you think the planet has the resources for that? if were paying £1 a litre now for 1.5billion people... whats not to say well be paying the equivelent of £3 a litre when theres 5billion wanting the fuel?
