Lots of bad thing happened during communism. Romania lived under the communist regime for about 45 years. More than 20 million souls lived under unimaginable bad conditions.
.
Imagine that people in Romania could watch television only a couple of hours.
At 8 pm the lights were out, children learned and wrote by the candle light. ME ALSO!!!
There wasn’t enough food for everyone so if you liked to buy meat, for example, you had to stay in an endless line, and only if you were lucky enough you got it.
.
Times of communism were very hard for the Romanians.
Nowadays conditions are better, but the better times are not reflected in the public opinion.
.
In communist time everybody had a job, an apartment or a house.
There was hardly any difference between poor people or rich people because everybody had the same: clothes, furniture.
The only things that made you think that one was richer, was if one had a car.
.
The worst thing on that time was that the Government knew that Romanians were poor but they didn’t seem to care.
They considered that if everybody had a job and a place to live, it was enough.
But there wasn’t enough food.
.
In Romania, on Ceausescu’s times sweets were only dreams for kids.
To get essentials like meat, oil and sugar people had to sit for hours in lines.
The country was so poor that Europe was heaven for Romanian people.
.
That days of total poverty are gone, but nowadays Ceausescu`s ex-country is confronted with a bigger problem.
17 years after the Revolution, Romania is being split in two social classes.
.
Living in the 21st century, imagine that in Romania there are people that haven’t traveled by train, people who don’t know how to use a mobile phone.
.
Nowadays the biggest problem in Romania is that more than 60% on Romanian people don’t have their own place to live, and more than 20% don’t have a job.
There are lots of unhappy men that once had a home, now living on streets and sleeping in parks.
These people blame the system for not giving them the chance to work.
.
The fact is that Romania was a poor state from the beginning, and it still is, but now it is worse.
