Mickpl wrote that Stano boasted about Channel Zero's EBITDA at 25 million. He compared this amount with the results of BloomBit, a mobile game producer, and 11bit, which — as he noted — creates games outside the AAA segment. In his opinion, this is not much for a medium described as one of the greatest media forces in Poland, although he also acknowledged that Channel Zero is not a bad media product. The author pointed out that the problem of the Polish economy is, in his opinion, the lack of investors despite available capital. He assessed that the capitalization of the Polish stock market is low and depends on the decisions of Western investment banks. He also wrote that Poles invest money in apartments or keep it in non-interest-bearing checking accounts; according to him, half of the primary market in the seven largest cities goes to investment purposes. He compared the 19 percent tax on stock market profits with an 8.5 percent flat rate on rental income. Mickpl assessed that the economy relies on construction, despite the poor demographic situation and unfavorable forecasts. He stated that in the West, Channel Zero could already have three helicopters and a stock market debut behind it, and revenues from collaborations and royalties from YouTube would only be an additional gain. He presented this as an example, in his opinion, of a flawed system. #KanałZero #Gospodarka #Inwestycje (translated)

We will see each other tomorrow - Shmoo expressed sympathy for ordinary Americans, accusing President Donald Trump of being disconnected from their problems. According to the author, 3 million people lost health insurance, tariffs increased annual family spending in stores by up to 1700 USD, fueling costs an additional 750 USD, and daycare fees rose by 850 USD. He added that factories lost 100,000 jobs, and the benefits of economic policy were enjoyed by the richest 1 percent, while the rest of society grew poorer. As a contrast, he pointed to displays of a "flying car." The author assessed that Trump's decisions over the past year were dangerous for Poland and Europe. He mentioned the exclusion of Russia from sanctions and the preparation of a peace plan without EU involvement, the withdrawal of some troops from Germany, plans to reduce 25,000–40,000 soldiers in Europe, and the chaos surrounding troop rotations in Poland. In his opinion, these actions weakened the credibility of NATO Article 5. Among other accusations, he listed tariffs on eight countries in the dispute over Greenland, the threat of 100 percent tariffs in response to the digital tax, and the use of the dispute between the government and the president in Warsaw to undermine EU unity. Shmoo wrote that the slogans of PiS and Confederation politicians about a "revolution of common sense" have aged poorly. He also criticized Karol Nawrocki for his uncritical support for Trump. #Polska #USA #Polityka (translated)

Jacek Fogiel asked what Nawrocki did aside from vetoing, and ironically referred to claims that Tusk and his government are doing nothing. In response, he listed actions attributed to Tusk's government. According to Fogiel, the government accelerated economic growth, with GDP rising by 3.8% in 2025, and reduced the VAT gap from 14.7% in 2023 to 4.9% in 2025. It launched the first quantum computer, built Polish AI factories and its own artificial intelligence called PLLuM, and expanded the functionalities of mObywatel, which already had 12.5 million users. Fogiel also credited it for strengthening cybersecurity, depoliticizing public media, and unlocking KPO and FE, which was supposed to provide 600 billion PLN for Poland's development. Among the economic and social actions, Fogiel mentioned a more favorable health contribution for entrepreneurs, a monthly leave without ZUS, and a cash PIT, where tax was to be paid after receiving payment. He also wrote about the highest real wage growth in the 21st century and an average above 9000 PLN gross, a decrease in inflation to 3.6% in 2025, and stock market records, with WIG above 150 thousand points. He added that the government launched a state-funded in vitro program, increased the number of childcare places for children under 3 by 66,921, and introduced 1500 PLN for grandparents as part of the Active Parent program. Fogiel also pointed out the first Polish military satellite, the launch of Baltic Towers, and the construction of Baltica 2, which was to provide energy for 2.5 million homes. He mentioned the construction of a new external port in the Baltic, Cape Pomerania, and allocated 2.7 billion PLN for local roads in 2026.
