Well, they probably largely aren't. American companies push our culture everywhere to encourage consumerist spending. Our media is systematically complicit with this. Aside from the obvious like commercials and product placement, our media also glorifies acquisition as both goal and reward. Not sure how to solve a problem? Buy a solution. Just "solved" a problem with consumption? Better reward yourself with a little treat (and some more consumption.)
Its not just commercial and product placements
People are copying the culture and language(using english words in the same sentence as romanian words)
