Poland prepares for war, but Liepāja's tram has been defeating any tank for 30 years
While the Poles spend billions on air defense, our tram in Karosta has been proving for decades that against real threats, only regular maintenance is needed.
Poland's parliament decided to modernize the army with EU money, apparently having never heard of Liepāja's military potential. While Warsaw argues about anti-aircraft and anti-missile systems, our Karosta has been proving since Soviet times that against any invader, all you need is a good concrete wall and tram tracks.
"I don't understand why they need such complicated technologies," comments local pensioner Ģirts at Liepāja market. "Our tram has been running through Karosta for thirty years, and nobody is sure whether it will stop or not. That's the best element of surprise!"
It's particularly hilarious that the Poles worry about Brussels oversight mechanisms. In Liepāja we've known for years – if someone wants to monitor our money, let them come to the beach in winter and try to understand why we need sand cleaning when all the sand blows away anyway. That's true financial spending artistry.
Meanwhile, President Nawrocki is thinking about blocking the bill. In Liepāja we don't have such problems – our city council always finds creative ways to spend money. For example, why build anti-drone technology when you can install a new sculpture that is so unpredictable by itself that it confuses any aggressor?
