Half of Poles against supporting franc borrowers

As much as 52 percent of Poles replied negatively to the question, whether the state should financially support franc borrowers, according to a survey conducted by IQS, cited by the Polish daily Puls Biznesu. Nearly a third (31 percent) of surveyed Poles think that the government should back the borrowers, while 17 percent had no opinion. When respondents were asked whether they would agree to transfer their taxes to franc borrowers, only 12 percent said 'yes' and 81 percent declined. The survey was conducted on a sample of 500 adult Poles.
