The flood showed one more time that in the moments of trial, Poles are excellent at passing exams on humanity and show themselves on the best side. The desire for selfless aid from the victims, the number of collections, as well as individuals who personally aid on the scene, is impressive.
You can feel pride in moments like this. erstwhile again, I encourage you to take part in fund-raising for humanitarian aid for floods, as well as any another aid.
On the another hand, as usual, the state failed to pass the exam. The level of confusion, information chaos, the management of this crisis is precisely what was expected. To disregard the threat, to mislead the residents, by unnecessarily calming them, then managing the evacuation, but not conducting it. There were besides many specified situations to recognise that politicians had prepared us for a crisis, and then they could deal with it.
This is why we pay taxes, so that we keep this full government apparatus, so that in specified situations Poles do not gotta take on the burden of saving the situation. The government is not here to tell us how to live, to regulate all aspect of our functioning, just to deal with the most crucial things that no 1 can handle alone. Unfortunately, politicians have no time and no desire to deal with the most serious matters.
If this is the case of a flood that occurs all respective years, I am truly afraid of what would happen in the event of an armed conflict, which is simply a much more serious situation that we have not been in since planet War II.
