WTF?! How are Poles working in Germany effectively extracting money from Germany?
They pay income taxes in Germany like everyone else. They are then free to do with their NET income what they please.
There is no obligation to spend your after-tax income in the same country.
- allendoerfer 6y agoPeople living in Poland (for the most part), but working in Germany ARE moving money to Poland. I am not angry about this. The same happens at the Swiss border with Germans. Everyone benefits, living conditions equalize, trade increases, everyone gets richer.
- ChuckNorris89 6y ago>People living in Poland ... but working in Germany People living in Poland and working in Germany are either commuters or remote workers, not immigrants like you mentioned in your post above to which I replied: ["Poland (one of the sources of immigration)"]. And they're not extracting money from Germany, they are earning it fairly and legally.
