N. Korea Dictator Kim Jong-Un Reportedly Dead After Botched Heart Surgery

From tmz.com

North Korea's Supreme Leader/dictator Kim Jong-un has reportedly died, or is on his death bed with no hope for recuperation -- according to media outlets in China and Japan. Amid reports China has sent a medical team to their communist neighbors this week to check in/advise on Kim, a Hong Kong-backed news channel's vice director -- who's apparently the niece of a Chinese foreign minister -- blasted out the news herself ... he's dead. The woman put the report on a social media app called Weibo for her nearly 15 million followers to read, citing a "very solid source" about the claim Kim had, in fact, perished. ... (full story)

Ask your 12 yo son to read this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histor...vakia_(1948–89)

And then ask him to teach you.

The USSR (СССР) was also called United Soviet Socialistic Republic. But they were socialistic as much as your NK never was a threat.

You must realize that you are not talking to your sun nor to your brainwashed friend. Your forum fellows are way more educated than you think.

Enough with the bullshit! In Czechoslovakia there were soldiers on the border, shooting everyone who wanted to leave!!! Thats not socialism, thats communism! Socialism is what we see now in Sweden, Denmark, Norway, etc. It involves freedom! In communism there is no freedom to choose! In communism, people couldn't even think for themselfs or criticize the government, or they ended up in jail and their families had their lives ruined!!! Czechoslovakia was 100% communism after 1968!

Think its still total speculation at this point whether this news item is true or not. Intelligence services have cast doubt on the notion that Kim is dead. But if true, the question of who will replace him will have major geopolitical implications. Its totally speculative what successor/s will emerge or what policies they might pursue.
Though NK has little or know economic standing in global markets but does pose a strategic threat to Japan and E Asia. So change of regime there represents a major issue affecting asian markets.
Think we need some firm info before reacting.

USA has suddenly become a workers paradise.

In Norway you get paid for not going to work during the crisis and the companies get unquestioned help from the government to avoid catastrophic consequences. There is socialism in the Nordic countries and particularly in Norway the socialism and the welfare systems are very well developed. The idea of Swedish - Norwegian socialistic welfare model is being borrowed by many countries but this model is based on trust and honesty and is impossible to implement in countries with a low society moral.

Speaking of USA. Just look at what’s happening there. People are out in the street with flags and weapons demanding reopening the country because they have no incomes and the companies are getting closed one after another. This cannot be a positive indicator of well-functioning socialism.

Emperor Kim Jong-Un has died/become vegetated by his own hand.
He used Death to control all others to such a degree that Fear is what guided the Hand of his Surgeon and not medical training.

On another note I see that the functionally illiterate are up and about.

120% applies probably only to American citizens and only if you have insurance compensating your loss of incomes in case of this kind of disaster. 60% from welfare services + 60% from your insurances = 120%.
