They do like their Vodka !

Gee, that's what they said about the Irish in America, and so many other places. Interesting how the tables turn, isn't it?

Comrac, I'm sure there are social problems caused wherever there is immigration. But immigration is one of the results of economic downturns, and immigrants deserve sympathy and assistance from those in a better economic situation. If you call yourself Irish, you're from a race that plagued the rest of the world with immigrants in the not-so-distant past. Those Irish immigrants turned out to be a blessing in many places.

Maybe you should try some Polish food before all the Poles go home.
