Sovi... err... Russia? Safer? ROTFLMAO! Ever seen dead astronauts being given CPR? Then watch documentaries about Soviet space program.
Cheaper? Yes.

IF it's safer, yes. I don't know, how many Soyuz spacecraft have the Russians lost in the last years?
I think the last fatal Soyuz accident was in 1971 (but I'm not sure, maybe more occured later on). And even that could have been prevented if the crew had used spacesuits.
