If Poland is added soon, look for a large wave of tourists to hit America's shores, many of which will seek citizenship.

I stand corrected, none of those four is going to VWP right now. Don't know if it's because their passports don't meet the technical specs (scanable by ICE's gizmos) or for other reasons.

We won't know if it's a problem with a large population Second World country until it's tried. Hungary is the biggest player like that so far but only have ten million people while Poland is 38.5 million. Britain and France have been on the program for years now with no major problems.

South Korea has 48.5 million and they went to VWP last year.
