"There's a difference between flows in the economy, in macroeconomics, in calculating GDP, and there's a difference between accumulated wealth, know-how, licenses, patents, various types of knowledge, technology, and again, technology. This causes a gigantic mass of money to continuously flow out of Poland. And what are our prescriptions, [...] these six main prescriptions that we propose here in this report?" - said Mateusz Morawiecki during the presentation of the 'Powered by Poland' report.
"Better utilization of Polish savings. Poles have savings amounting to approximately PLN 3.6 trillion. Of this, in loans, leasing, factoring, i.e., in the part that enters the economy, and not only in corporate loans, but I'm also including cash loans, consumer loans, credit cards, and mortgages, there is only about PLN 1.5 trillion. So, roughly speaking, PLN 2 trillion could be utilized better, in a way more conducive to economic development."
"Public procurement must be the engine of the Polish economy and it still isn't. We've been discussing this for at least 15-20 years. In the last two years, you've also heard from the current Prime Minister about: repolonization of orders. No, I propose the true nationalization of public procurement. We have analyzed all models: France, Italy, Germany, EU countries, and we should go ruthlessly, aggressively over the edge, just as they do. But as many funds as possible [...] should be engaged here in Polish economic soil."
"Energy prices. We cannot pour such large sums of money into energy prices today, because our economy will be uncompetitive. We have proposed special solutions, feasible solutions, not as costly as the current government claims it would strain the budget. Very slightly in relation to the relief it could provide to entrepreneurs. Therefore, extremely favorable relations on these individual items of the energy bill, which nobody understands: a fee for this, for that, for that, for that, for this and that. [...] And the largest, which we pay in the form of a climate tax to wealthy EU countries."
"Radical, fundamental acceleration of administrative and court decisions. Appropriate benchmarks must be applied here. The principle of tacit consent must be applied. Bold solutions must be introduced that will radically change the relationship between the entrepreneur and the official. The official must know that they are paid from the entrepreneur's taxes and the entrepreneur is their absolute client, the most important interlocutor. And there should be no being sent away empty-handed after 60 days for another 60 days, and this kind of approach."
"A topic that is strongly linked to huge defense spending. We have all learned what dual-use means, but let's add another pair of English words to this dual-use: input, output. I strongly encourage you to consider this. Let the output count first, not the input. What good is it to us that we spend a truly enormous sum on armaments, on defense policy? [...] This must be part of the Polish economic process. These must be dual-use goods."
"The last point is a new public administration policy, a new investment policy. This is about large engines of growth. [...] Central Communication Port, nuclear power, container port in Świnoujście, expansion of container ports. From PLN 18 billion to PLN 58 billion within 8 years, budget revenues increased from VAT, customs duties, and excise tax solely as a result of the expansion of ports in Gdynia, Gdańsk, Szczecin, Świnoujście. We are talking about such amounts of money. And similarly for CPK or other large investments, not only infrastructure in the sense of hard infrastructure, but also AI, microprocessors."
