With around 30,000 to 50,000 living victims, their numbers continue to dwindle each week. The German government's lack of action has been met with anger and sadness in Poland. Some suggest that German business leaders and corporations who profited from forced labor should step in to help these survivors, while others believe the issue can be resolved at the highest political levels.",
