Does anyone on the planet buy into the incredible bullsh-t these Koreans pump out?
Or maybe chewing the bark off of trees to survive really makes some people happy??

Wow! This is great news! North Korea is also the greenest country on the planet as well! (As can be seen even with the night photo above, no energy at night) Every person there lives the most minimalist lifestyle with the lowest possible carbn footprint. They also have beautiful concentration camps that help you adapt to your new found lifestyle and happiness.

I cant wait to share this news with all of the liberals, progressives and democrats I know!!! I will even donate all of my extra money to buy them plane tickets to head off to this left-wing paradise being that they are so miserable and digusted at American traditional values and capitalist greed.

I will even throw them a sending off party!!!

Spread the news!!!! Democrats pack your bags!!! Happiness awaits in the happiest and greenest country on earth! Free health care also!!!!
