The work of the Legislative Sejm – political and economic
Trąmpczyński Sejm, Nearly four years old, He has not yet had a fair comparison with his famous predecessor. Piłsudski and Stańczyca will try him, yes, humiliate. Although society did not give him a strong majority, Although inexperienced people prevailed in it, about unrelated views, he met his task not too much. He gave the constitution, he restrained arbitrariness, He adopted a lot of reforms, He created the army and enabled her to win, Finally established the boundaries of the Republic of Poland. It was not ruled by the right – Because others did not want to cooperate with her, nor the left – because she did not have a common program, at most a few common passwords; Patriotism ruled, who ordered even foreign offices to support, central. At the but one of the exam, our constitutive did not pass. She failed to do with the state economy. Country, which started being almost without burdens in worishly caught up with Europe in terms of debts. It was not so much alive over the state, with [printed] Banknotes without hesitation. The eastern campaign plunged our currency so far, that dollar with 122 Marek in January 1920 r. He jumped during the year on 730. The first budget brought by Grabski in 1921 r. turned out to be unreal; The elastic action of Michalski and the announcement of closing the credit union caused the indignation of the left (Hence her solidarity with Piłsudski). A scorching summer crisis 1922 r. he buried the work of "Iron broom". And here is the nation he was ready to die for Poland (40 000 killed in the Bolshevik war) The vast majority showed the unconscious of his tax obligations to the treasury. "Most of the Sejm – Bobrzyński writes aptly, However, without specifying, What was the majority -considering their voters, peasants and workers, adopted taxes only on one condition, that the lowest will be released from them, and at the same time the most numerous classes, and she moved the limit of release so high, that the tax result was missing the target. This took place primarily with income and property tax. This goal was achieved at the ground, by introducing progression for the most possessing, and the agression for the least. This system did not generally instill the people of conviction, that the burden of keeping the state should be carried away. The rapidly changing treasure ministers did not find understanding of their colleagues of ministers, of which all of which all his expenses considered necessary… The state was alive with loans (internal), which they did not bring much, and the main source of income was in printing money, to which the Sejm allowed the Sejm in turn ". It had to be like that, Until the nation has emerged, capable of creating power and to lift responsibility for the fate of the state.
