Good luck convincing the North Korean people that while they get bombarded by missiles, airstrikes and gunship raids. :thmbup1: Well, maybe if their leader would be a little nicer and respect border agreements and stop attacking ships and bombarding...  [Read More]

I'm just saying what others have already said, but refugees generally tend to flee in the safest direction. I certainly wouldn't want to flee to a country that has several thousands missiles pointed at it by people I'm running from. Well, I wouldn't...  [Read More]

A longer, safer journey is better than a shorter but riskier one. True, but when the fighting begins you really not going to be thinking which way is safer way your going to be thinking which way gets me out of this artillery fire and possibly be th...  [Read More]

Regarding refugees, I share the same belief that they will prevent NK from collapsing just for that. But in the event that it should, China's style of government could just handle the refugees in brutal fashion. It's not the killing that intimidates...  [Read More]

You can't blame them from not announcing to the world that "OK GUYS SO WHEN EVERYONE STARTS FIGHTING IN THEM KOREAS WE'LL BE WITH SIDE [A], OK?!?!?!" True, but don't you think that China could say that North Korea we can't help you in this...  [Read More]

The US is a democracy; of course we have a choice if they can’t have their cars, gas or chocolate. They will throw out whoever is in power and elect those that make promises (false or not) to get them those things. I agree that people elect w...  [Read More]

That's why I don't understand why it's even a question for China. They're really holding back for pride at this point. I wouldn't care if China decided to go on the side of N. Korea (which they already kind of are) just so they get bled dry by the ec...  [Read More]

Unification won't happen until China sits on the Kim family hard enough and/or feeds them anti-psychotic medication. War, on the other hand, is entirely possible because the Kims are as insane as Saddam Hussein was, thinking they can take on the US....  [Read More]

You really believe Americans are willing to give up getting a new car for 5 years so that we could retool factories to produce war products as we did in WWII? Well, for one no Americans are not willing to, but neither is any other country. Plus no...  [Read More]

Hmm, I wouldn't be so keep on North Korea trading... they're going for autarky - i.e. complete economic independence. Whether they achieve it or not is a question, but South Korea, with the economic motherload it's sitting on, probably won't mind los...  [Read More]

Which is really why the war isn't taking place - there's nothing to gain. Morals, politics and so on are really just hogwash. It all comes down to whether someone has something to gain or not, even if it's just a little security. North Korea does not...  [Read More]

I can't see anyone who'd disagree with that, but that really is moot because the South Korean people aren't so meek as to allow Kim to take over them under some guise of peaceful reunification. Remember that the reunification can only occur if both c...  [Read More]

When you say that an unification will likely mean that Jong-Il's team will be in charge. Other than that, and if we're still using the geopolitical perspective, there's little to criticise in your early posts (not addressing the latest ones since th...  [Read More]

Nope there was not Unemployment Insurance across the entire United States at that time. It was not introduced until 1932 and most state finally adopted the idea in 1936. However, to get unemployment insurance benefits, you must first work at a job th...  [Read More]

No, because you do not have a clue. The Great Depression was not just NC, but the entire country and most of the world. :rolleyes: BTW NC unemployment rate for Nov 2010 is 9.7% not the 20% to 40% you estimated. US Department of Labor (http://www.bl...  [Read More]

You really need to read a little and don't make remarks like this that are factually inaccurate. It makes it really difficult to take anything you write seriously. The economy was better in the Great Depression than it is today? http://upload.wikime...  [Read More]
