I have to ask.
Korea, sometimes North, has been used as an example so many times in this thread.
Why Korea?
I am not getting it.
Can someone explain why ever we would want to be like Korea, the Soviet Union or East Germany (the DDR)???
I am not trying to be dense, I try to be well read and keep up with politics, diplomacy and history, but somehow in all that I seemed to have missed why we keep using these countries of examples for the US to follow.
Norway, Finland, heck...Canada even, I get. North Korea, I do not get.
I have this weird MASH meets James Bond meets Fiddler on the Roof meets Stalag 17 meets Southpark thing going on in my head now.
