"What do you mean people are starving? I eat plenty!"
It’s sad how, in the end, socialism has this stark tendency to lead towards the destruction of the same children they supposedly are doing everything for in the beginning.
The stuff could be true -- but it almost never is.
Its happened before.
Yes, very sad.
But North Korea was once a VERY PROSPEROUS nation and it wasn’t until the 1970s (I think) that the South finally matched their per-capita income. They (the North) were industrial and doing just fine. But they also had a lifeline from the Soviet Union, and that being very cheap oil. Once the lifeline was cut, the powerplants shut off, and people starved.
In the US, we have lifeline from China. There is now VIRTUALLY NOTHING that we cannot build or do without Chinese help, and that includes our farm tractors, which will quickly start to putter out, once the Chinese replacement parts stop coming in. Or try running an oil refinery, without electronics.
So don’t think it can’t happen here, because it will. And sooner, rather than later.
When the welfare state runs out of taxpayers and producers, then who pays for the welfare?
Now we know.
I find this hard to believe.
If these people were this bad off sooner or later a few of them would band together and take what they need from those who have it , and before long we would be rid of Kim Jong Il.
Before I would eat my child I would eat my neighbor or anyone I could catch and kill.
I cannot believe they treat someone who would starve them like this as though he is a god. he would find himselfon my dinner table.
[HUNGRY parents in North Korea have been caught eating their CHILDREN]
BARBARIANS!!. We just abort three or million of our children every year but we don’t eat them. We’re CIVILIZED.
A lesson in communism which is quite obviously lost on our benighted and gormless president.
The leftwing utopia strikes again.
I’m sure this is my fault, too.
I did it right after illegal immigration and slavery.
"What do you mean people are starving? I eat plenty!"
And maybe they ate the executed later. Another example of what atheism fosters as much as false religion of more, that of political religion.
The video to see is the National Geographic documentary, Inside North Korea;/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxLBywKrTf4
Incredibly credible,
Right up barry’s alley.
Coming to a middle class neighborhood near us before long. The longer politicians wait to cut excessive spending, the uglier it’s going to be.
I’m NOT going to read the article, but do you believe it?
You can see why a lot of South Koreans don’t want unification. North Koreans, while I pity them, probably aren’t ready to be part of a real civilization. They are cult members, they are prisoners, they are deeply scarred and unprepared for the real world.
