CBOS research shows that the majority of the society expects the government to lead using more than the usual egalitarian social policy. Mitigating the income stratification in Poland by social transfers is not sufficiently effective. Therefore, the following actions are worth considering: introduction of higher capital duty, development of a new scale of personal income tax in order to begin the process of systematic reduction of indirect taxes and improvement of tax assets.
