What is really bad here is that we have to vote against a very bad candidate, not for a good one. Hilary needs to commit to certain priorities for all those groups that decided to vote for her - potentially compromising what she has promised so far - simply voting against Trump. Otherwise voting for her is a lost vote...
They do it because they can and they learned that the public will scream for a few days and move on with their daily problems soon after.
It's sad, very sad. I am pessimistic and I have an impression looking at how Obama and co. are lying without any consequences, what NSA has being doing and other recent examples, that we lost that war and we have no tools to fight against it.
First of all this is a reaction to polls giving the ruling party a significant drop of acceptance within the young people, who have always been the strongest support group for them.
Second thing, let's don't be naive. Tusk knows very well that what was there to sign in Japan, has been signed. It's to late to stop certain things, it's all cold thinking about the popularity and the party has to be punished in the elections anyway... although the alternative is still terrible...
Wow, a country with a ruling party whose strongest support group is young people. Compared to a lot of other countries, I'd say there's hope for Poland.
The left? Lots of scandals which they tried to deny/cover. Lost trust, their new leader perceived as sleazy. The "right"? They cater to religious old people and their fears of change. PSL? Farmers' & big food interests. Palikot? He is the one catering to the young (reduce influence of the church, legalize MJ) but IMHO he's trying too hard to be perceived as trustworthy.
Can't fully test the free vs. paid as "we are closed for the 2011....", but I am not sure how uncomfortable was it to go free option versus paid (eg. big site logo on the free printout). Maybe the free option should be slightly more painful to make users consider paying?
