Poles may feel richer now, "but felt less stress under communism"

Warsaw - Although Poles now feel richer, more free and better dressed, they also feel more stress than under communism, said a poll Tuesday in the daily Gazeta Wyborcza. Some 91 per cent said they feel more stress now than they did during Poland's communist regime from 1945 to 1989, said the survey of 500 people. Nearly 70 per cent said they are now working harder and have less time for friends and family. The survey also found Poles now feel less religious and polite, but also feel better educated, more free and more European.
