Călin Georgescu minte că azi nu se mai produce nimic și ce bine era în trecut. Cu ce ne desfătam în comunism? • Newsweek România

Călin Georgescu claims that Romania no longer produces anything and romanticizes the past, but the reality of communism was far from ideal. The article lists various subpar products from that era, such as the Dacia car, which was difficult to obtain and unreliable. Other vehicles like Lăstun and Oltcit were considered failures, while household appliances were heavy and inefficient. Television and radio technology was outdated, and basic goods like cigarettes and coffee were of poor quality. The author emphasizes that many desirable products were simply unavailable, highlighting the stark contrast between past and present.
