If there was a correlation you would see the same trend in Slovakia, Hungary and such
Per capita Slovakia and Hungary are getting way more than Poland so its the other way around if anything (of course the Baltics are a good counterpoint)
Slovakia growth wasn't doing too bad, for Hungary we know the reason why it's the poorest EU country, Orban stole everything.
Well, you do see the same trend in gdp per capita in Slovakia. The problem is that Poland has 30m more people.
