- direct payments, bound to specific services

- no Diesel tax, its distribution partly a defense infrastructure

- no high powered vehicle tax

- state buys wheat and spelt and resells for a fixed price

- big milk processors pay less taxes

- small milk processors receive cost covering subsidies

- EU cohesion Billions tied to agri exports (a reverse subsidy)

ITA, France, NL, ESP and Poland recieve dozens of Agri-billions.

And the funny thing is that some 20 years ago majority of EU subsidies for agriculture that Poland was getting were payments to farmers for NOT planting on their land.
