Romania isn't great, but Moldova is 10 times worse. I have been noticing good news coming out of Romania for the last couple of years. Seems their new government just went insane, but not sure how it will end for them. Maybe they'll get Ceaușescu treatment?

To see what an absolute basket case commie Moldova is have a look at the difference in Romanian and Moldovan economic development.

I recently saw a documentary about a family in Romania.
Their living standards did not appear to be too terribly bad. They had cell phones, color television, appliances. Seemed to have enough to eat. Clothes looked decent enough.
