They should just copy Polish laws. They are far from perfect, and yet they provided Poland with almost 30 years of stable, few percent growth, regardless of global and European economic struggles. When you plot the chart of Polish GDP even such a significant event as entering EU doesn't even register in the shape of the growth.

True, I was considering going back to Poland for business... if only Poland was more politically stable.
It recently had a bit of tax law upheaval, but things settled down since then. As for other issues it's politically stable, by which I mean consistently politically crappy.
True but Poland did come from a really really deep hole under the thumb of the Soviets. They were very thoroughly screwed over. I guess this is why Poland is the most anti russian country in the EU now (and rightly so)

Just saying that growth is pretty easy starting off from zero.
