Sprzeczności w systemie podatkowo-składkowym i ich przezwyciężanie
Overcoming the contradictions of the tax system and pension contributions

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this article is to present the basic problems arising when constructing the pension system in Poland. The pretext to take up the subject was the proposal to withdraw from the limit on social security contributions. Using theoretical arguments, literature review and analysis of basic data on the current state of public finances, the authors indicate the effects of manipulation in the principles of the functioning of the pension. While in the short term giving up the limit of paid contributions improves the balance of public finances and reduces income inequalities, in the long run it leads to additional tensions in public finances and worsens social cohesion indicators.
