Just a question seeing as Poland is now in the EU. Who thinks Poland will enter the Euro and who doesn't? I personally hope they don't.

Let's see. What happened when the Germans and the Dutch adopted that currency? Prices went sky high. Most places merely changed the sign without adjusting the price. Example- a beer in Amsterdam that was 4 guilders is now 4 euros. Can you imagine that in Poland? I think not. Besides, with any luck it is dead.

Poland has plans to adopt the Euro once it has the economic fundamentals in place.That means that all those working for IH will be really fcuked.
