Does COMFORT make Americans WEAK?
In this conversation in Transylvania, five Romanians consider the claim, “I would rather be ruled by America than Russia.”
Four participants express some level of agreement, though they do not all admire the United States. One woman disagrees, harshly criticizing “the American dream.” She admits that Russians often have a miserable life, but admires their bravery. When she suggests that America is “like a big factory,” another participant recalls Soviet control in Romania. He states that people in the U.S. have more creative opportunities, while Russians are forced into low-wage jobs because “that’s the way it goes in communism.”
When Peter asks the final question of the discussion, one participant reveals a crack in her reasoning.
