Respondents’ age
The greatest responsibility is assigned to the Polish government by the youngest examined group, namely respondents aged 18-29 (57%). These respondents tend to manifest the most unanimous opinions as well – every surveyed person from this group was able to formulate an opinion.

Beneficiaries of the 500+ social program
