Poles worked for the state until August 18 this year — later than in previous years

Poland's Private Sector Freedom Day this year fell on August 18, meaning citizens spend more of the year working to fund the state than in previous years. Mateusz Benedyk of the Mises Institute highlighted the shift during the "Gwiazdowski mówi Interii" podcast, noting the date has been moving progressively later, indicating a growing fiscal burden on Poles.
