Poland is a great country if you know your way around.
I have to agree for ordinary people or for so called middle-class it's pretty bad comapared to Germany, France, UK, or most of other well-developed European countries. Not even mentioning USA. Middle-class in USA is like upper-class in Poland.
The biggest problems for middle-class nowadays is owning property, just a house or a condo - only not a problem for people who inherited a house or just general wealth. Government will intervene possibly in the future if it comes to that, because the market for renting houses is becoming quite riddicoulous. Especially if you compare what middle-class wage is to what they usually have to pay for just rent.
BUT it is a relatively safe and clean country, not as safe as idk - Norway, but definitely safer then before mentioned Germany, France, UK or god forbid USA where technically anybody can whack you anytime just after a trip to Alabama and back. Strict gun laws are pain in the ass for some but definitely a plus for "normal" people that just don't carry. Really good IT infrastracture, roads are pretty bad but you can get used to it. And it's very friendly for most foreigners even though some media portray it otherwise because there is a problem at the eastern border now (Belarus) with illegal aliens because Belarus basically took imigrants from Middle-East and is forcing them in many ways to try to flood the country, cause a humanitarian crisis and make Poland look bad for not trying to help these people. Poland simply has no spare money for other refugees since investing in helping Ukraine ( like Germany for example where i heard some people supposedly can live just out of what government gives them).
You my friend seem to have YOU problem a bit. Not just with what this country has to offer you.
