Mihaela Ceaușescu explică nostalgia românilor după comunism
Mihaela Ceaușescu discussed the nostalgia for the communist era, attributing it to current economic disparities. She noted the near disappearance of the middle class and the modest living conditions of intellectuals today. Ceaușescu emphasized that many citizens feel a longing for the past due to greater stability compared to today's economic uncertainty. She highlighted the stark wealth gap, with the richest 20% earning significantly more than the poorest, and pointed out the challenges faced by young academics in affording housing. Official data supports the notion of increasing economic polarization in Romania, with a high relative poverty rate and rising housing costs in major university centers.
