The economic policy of protectionism rarely works and is at fault for the high price of foreign goods in your country. Tax funded subsidies is far more effective for consumers.

My country too struggles with this in some cases, we pay $2.15 per litre of milk. Imported cheeses are so expensive that most people settle for locally produced stuff which has a flavour only slightly stronger than cream. I really miss the cheddar that was so cheap when I lived in Ireland.

>Why did you leave Ireland?
There was what the Irish called the credit crunch in 2008 while my native Norway thought that was a breakfast cereal, having noticed no ill effects. The low price of oil may mean that it's time to return to Ireland with new experience and help establish a new market for my line of work. There are good places to go within the EU, you don't need to go to the US.
>>55119790
Well, I can't speak for Poland specifically but most of the EU taxes imported goods like that because VAT is used to fund various things. I have a good number of Polish friends who say that the corruption undermines their faith in taxes though.

I spend 114 on bills, I don't pay rent because my gf owns our apartment, I pay 127 a month for cheap food, once in a while I go to a restaurant and have a $6 meal

I rarely ever drink - usually when I'm visiting parents because my family has a long tradition of making their own alcohol (not in a scum way - my dad's brandy and my uncle's meads are top tier)

top tier programmers in my city make something about $2000 and it's one of the main cities of Poland

That's a part of it too but the attitudes are more problematic. It's pervasive and destructive. Look at your roads and say "It'll be grand!" Look at your social welfare system and say "It'll be grand!" Look at your Internet infrastructure and say "It'll be grand!" Look at your water, which the EU has deemed unfit for human consumption in places and the government want to meter and say "It'll be grand!" No you shower of langers, it won't be grand. It's far from grand.

Bulgaria. And yes, I had a few encounters with child services, and that was before I even stopped going to school, it was just my crazy mother trying to play the "my son has been kidnapped by his own father and is now miserable" game.
What happened was my father (whom I lived with at the time, divorced parents and crazy mom and all) broke up with his girlfriend of 10 years. The woman in question owned the apartment we were living in so we had to go.
And yeah, the only place we could go to is literally in the mountains. Small town of about 2000 people. Could've been worse in that regard, I guess.

I can empathise. I work in an industry usually populated by women and I'm tired of hearing people say "Oh, a male such and such worker? Oh well" as if they'll be getting worse service because of it. It's annoying as shit but certainly not as harmful as tumblr makes it out to be. It was fun to subvert their expectations in the beginning but that was four years ago.

You get tired of real estate agents breathing down your neck after a while.

As a fellow Bulgarian I can say that he could only steal a top tier GPU from the spoiled brats of people you do NOT wanna steal from.

I can ALSO say that if you don't have the bad luck of going through some family drama or being a gypsy, you can actually live a great life here with an IT education.
Your average monthly expenses would be at about 300-400$, a starting salary in programming or even tech support would be around 1,100-1,500$ and will raise steadily, lots of foreign companies are outsourcing their shit here since we work better than Pajeets at pretty much the same prices and we're in the EU.

Dude you're more luckier than me. The government is basically giving you a hotel suite for your time to work. The homeless and veterans are not even close to that kind of support, but we still donate to charities even after the market crashed.

A GTX 1080 is a WANT not a need, fuck off its not like import taxes are denying you food and drink or that you really need 20% higher gpu performance, most games worth your time run well on older machines

If you're really poor and the only thing on your mind is how you cant afford a high end GPU really puts you on the same level as girls who take out loans to buy a LV handbag, fucking less than worthless

The 670 in burger land was only worth $80 used at the time so I wanted to send him one of mine. He was heart broken when he told me that he doesn't have the money for shipping and import fees. I looked it up, it would be like $150 to get it to him.

in the end it all balances out, you see. the next time you rape and rob some tourist girls, you can use their money for the extra cost of the GPU.

the girls on the other hand have to return home without their money AND they have to pay for an abortion too. so when they buy their GPU it should cost less don't you think?

That's because the price went up when the dollar skyrocketed to 4.30 Temers because Dilma.

Just last year I bought a gigabyte G1 gaming one, which is one of the most expensive models, for 1600, plus I got metal gear phantom pain with it. The alternative was an r9 390 for +50 Temers and no free game.

import taxes on electronics are not being used for protectionism measures but for direct revenue. I have no hope of any polititian even considering to discuss a tax break for electronics, even though we'll probably never have the means to develop a autochtonous high tech hardware sector the extra funding is simply too sweet and steady for them to let it go. Everyone wants new toys, even poor hue monkeys.And we'll get them even if we must pay double for it.

And we do.
