You do realize that all countries are flawed and no matter where you go, corruption is present. Best to pick the place that can provide you with a comfortable life style and by that I don't mean merely being able to afford living there.

Lol, you'll see, Alan. The grass isn't much greener on the other side.

And here's a one helluva awkward North Korea song just to bring the mood here.

There is no need to argue over this point any more, but, please, the "lipstick on a pig" statement and "I hope he fails" statement are in completely different categories.

After all, we are living in a very complicated world.

It's only what you make it, my friend. Nothing more, nothing less.


LET'S GET BACK ON TOPIC!!!!! I simply asked why you though Korea did this, and what you think it might lead to in the future, not some political debate.

Goodness.

I believe the contrary.

... But, yes, we've gone off topic. My apologies to the OP.

You are asking a political question and made some very political statements. If you want to back down from those statements, that is your choice.

N. Korea is flexing its muscles in a world that looks at as a tiny and sad monarchy, basically. They see many of their neighbors and much of the rest of the world as enemies.

They want to see how far their missiles can fly. Missiles carrying satellites into space do not fall into the ocean. They are looking for lateral distance and, again, reminding the world that they are a nuclear state.

The North Korean government is cleaver.

The starvation in North Korea is actually a form of population control via natural disasters and government policies.

And all the Socialist policies in this countries... Machiavellianism at its finest.

What is the result? Continuous Songun policy with great results without putting extreme efforts by the North Korean government. A very brutal domestic Social Darwinism that is well-controlled.

Are you saying that is a good thing or a bad thing?
