It is called math.
If 50% of the polled are guaranteed to provide 0% of the people willing to fight then it means ther the other half accounts for all of the positive answers.
1/5 is 20%, 20*2 is 40%.
You just demonstrated you can't do simple arithmetic...
Stop playing an idiot, you know i meant your lack of correction for improper age groups saying no.
Depends on the poll,and this poll is gouging willingness, not capability.
70 year old grandpaseill beat themselves on the chest and tell you they will gladly march on Muskal to kill that devil Stalin.
Your talent at dodging information inconvenient to the narrative you are trying to push by any means necessary, be it joke, laziness or pretending idiocy is touching, but won't get you anywhere.
You can assume that every old geezer gave a joke answer, but that's something else you're just making up and no one has any reason to not look upon it with disdain.
Again, the poll checks the willingness to fight, not the fitness.
And what percentage of the Polish population is chronically ill?
What percentage is over 70?
A poll measures the answers to the specific question asked among the sample group, not what you wish it measured. If the poll asks "would you fight if your country was invaded", it will get certain answers, and if the poll asks "would you fight if your country was invaded, if you're sick and/or old answer as if you were 30 year old and healthy" or "would you be willing to fight if your country was invaded, even if your current health doesn't allow you to" will give you a different set of answers. Absolutely nothing indicates that either your or my poll asked the latter variant of the question FYI.
The wiki article puts military fitness as ending at 49, while Polish draft law makes it 55 for non-officers/NCOs, but that's statistically minimal numbers.
So, assuming not much change since 2012, there's your answer:
pl.wikipedia.org
Depending on which cut-off you take, it's 25% or 32% disqualified by old age.
The amount of disabled in qualified age group will not be that high and detailed data by age is hard to get, so lets not bother, because we already know enough.
Your buddies in Ukraine are drafting people as old as 60, after all.
Registers, not necessarily drafts. The common practice is that the military may take some particularly skilled or experienced people around that age, like, say, military surgeons or officers, but a 55 year old grunt probably won't get called up anyway even if he doesn't have a suitcase of medical problem documentation which at that age quite some will have.
Also reminder that Poland is not Ukraine, and something similar to the above is official policy in Poland - draft ends at 55 for the enlisted, but 63 for NCOs and officers with highly needed skills.
Actually according to the wiki you have an army of 100 000 and over 7k females in it.
So at least 7-8% of your women are manlier than oh, 60-70% of your men.
So, as i said, we know enough. Only 68% or so are not too old or sick, so outside of some jokers there's the absolute maximum for the yes section. Take away 90% or so of women, you're left with about 37% of population. According to your very general poll, 21% said yes, 21%/37% gives us about 56% of the relevant people.
The better poll i've found which breaks down specific questions and age groups gives an even better answer.
17% said "they are willing to fight in frontline combat" and another 49% of total population would be willing to help defend the country but not in frontline combat (so both military support roles or industrial/medical support), for a total of 66% being willing to help defend the country in some way or another.
So, you have a great demonstration how asking slightly different questions and breaking them down can make a poll give a totally different impression, aka basic statistical wizardry.
The closeness of 17% and 21% in different polls may in fact point at the worse poll getting confused answers due to the question being formed more generally, so people guessed what exactly was meant by the question and answered accordingly, spoiling the whole result.
Over 30% will leave outright.
Not according to my link, and yours has no breakdown, so it may well be a total of leftists and women who are raising children, which would kinda add up and make perfect sense too.
Not leaving does not mean that the remainder thet is not willing to fight will all act in support roles.
I think that the 20% is about right.
Opinion discarded due to opinion's owner being full of shit.
Sure, better because it is produced by a bunch of neocucks and conforms to your wishes.
At least they admit what questions they asked specifically and who answered how unlike in yours, where you fill in the blanks with convenient bullshit you made up in your head. I'll trust the biggest neocons over your bullshit lol.
