"The hermit kingdom was actually wealthier than the now-affluent South before the Korean War"

Just like Cuba before Castro. Left-wingers destroy everything they touch.

See the Gaza Strip as another example.

The South doesn’t have mineral treasure, their growth is from entrepreneurship and brain-power/hard work.

Venezuela. Zimbabwe. Socialism/Communism destroys everything it touches. But our schools teach that Capitalism is evil.

We also ran out of targets during the war...

During the course of the three-year war... the U.S. dropped 635,000 tons of explosives on North Korea, including 32,557 tons of napalm, an incendiary liquid that can clear forested areas and cause devastating burns to human skin. (In contrast, the U.S. used 503,000 tons of bombs during the entire Pacific theater of World War II, according to a 2009 study by The Asia-Pacific Journal.) In a 1984 interview, Air Force General Curtis LeMay, head of the Strategic Air Command during the Korean War, claimed U.S. bombs “killed off 20 percent of the population” and “targeted everything that moved in North Korea.”

“Most Americans are completely unaware that we destroyed more cities in the North than we did in Japan or Germany during World War II.... Every North Korean knows about this, it’s drilled into their minds. We never hear about it,”
