Question of the week #42

In the season two episode "New Car," Philip and Elizabeth had a discussion about life in the U.S. that ended with Elizabeth saying that "easier is not always better."

What do you think the main differences are between how Philip and Elizabeth see life in the U.S.? And how about people like Nina, Arkady, and Oleg, who are viewing the U.S. from more obviously external perspectives--what do they think about life in the U.S.? 

You can expect spoilers for the entire first two seasons in the comments.

(There's no expiration date on these questions, so if you're reading this post months later and feel like jumping in, please do.)
