Don't worry, if elections would be made today in Poland then ruling party (PiS) would lost (opposition would have more votes so coalition would be possible). Poland is the most EU enthusiastic society in EU. Most of the things that ruling party does now was not in their program before elections, people protested on streets but it's democracy, you need to wait for next elections. Orban in Hungary is very pragmatic, he talks a lot but when pressured in EU he will take step back. In Hungary genesis is different, 8 years ago there was big economic crisis there, country was on the edge of bankruptcy, Orban and his party changed things, people just voted for bread.

Poland is the most EU enthusiastic society in EU I find this ironic since they are not part of the Eurozone. Their economy is much less at risk from mismanagement in Greece than France, the Netherlands or Germany. it's democracy, you need to wait for next elections In a representative democracy, you need to wait for the next elections. In a parliamentarian democracy, a vote of no confidence can trigger elections (like Canada in 2011) or the Prime Minister can ask the Crown to dissolve parliament and call elections (like the UK in 2010). This can lead to situations like 3 elections within 5 years (Canada 2006, 2008, 2011). In the US, federal elections are every two years, with the whole House being up for election and 1/3 of the Senate while the President is up every other Congressional election.

  You can be enthusiastic about the EU but not the Euro, I can't imagine any of the successor nations are in a hurry whilst the Greek and Italian issues are unresolved.

  You are right about Polish economy less likely being at risk than Greece and Italy's. This is mainly because Poland is not part of the EMU and retain control over their currency.
