North Korea should study up on China

China a Communist Country has sort of adopted Capitalism, they still have an iron grip on the Country but the population seems somewhat satisfied with life unlike in North Korea

If all this works out, one of the main things that needs to be addressed is the concentration camps they run in NK. The psycholigal damage that has been inflicted on the NK people will take at least a generation to repair. Not to mention what to do with all the camp officials who are basically sadistic pathological psychopaths.

Add to the list; 100,000’s of NK Army goose-steppers out of a job...

North Korea’s going to be China’s sweatshop for a few decades.

If you go and look at the path from the mid-80s to now, people would be shocked at the advancement in China, and the number of millionaires that exist.

Just to suggest to a group of North Koreans that sixty 12-year-old kids in North Korea today, might be by age twenty-five....multi-millionaires, without any government support to achieve that...might shock the visiting folks.

Strange. Kim Jong Un executed his uncle who advocated exactly this.

What happened in China is really quite simple.

Chicaps freed from the rigorous impediments of Mao communism went into business and made tons of money that transformed the lives of the people.

People left to their own devices like to work and and make money. South Korea in spite of the chobal’s is a great example.

Exactly!

And isn’t it amazing he world’s leading Communist nation realized that Capitalism was the only way to go, and our Lefties still haven’t gotten the memo.

The ROK Army kids who worked with us at I Corps were hand-picked sons of the Chobals, flag officers, upper-level bureaucrats and corporate farmers, not typical conscripts. I enjoyed many a delicious meal in their homes. Wish I wasn’t a shut-in, now I’m craving Korean food.

I’ve heard the term ‘Chobal’ before. A colleague mused, “Chobal sounds and feels a lot like the word ‘cabal’”

You know more about this I have a feeling. What do you think?

Here is another indication that Kim & his ruling leaders perhaps actually do intend to reform!
