Summary/Abstract: The system of alignment of financial capability between stronger and weaker units of self-government in respect of revenue tax has been in force since 2004 in Poland. This system, defined popularly as “Janosikowe”, is practical expression of realization of selfgoverned principle of solidarity and subsidiarity. It has excited many controversies for years, especially for self-governments which have been obliged to execute yearly payment to the state budget. Thus, many proposals of changes in Act about revenues of self-government units have appeared.
