Kim Jong Un admitted Wednesday that his five-year economic plan failed “tremendously” on nearly every front, state media reported.

The North Korean leader made the comments at a rare days-long Workers’ Party gathering, which was last hosted in 2016 when he first set forth the plan.

“The strategy was due last year but it tremendously fell short of goals on almost every sector,” Kim said in opening remarks to the congress, according to KCNA.

I dream of the day when the USA will have fair elections and honest politicians like North Korea!

Since dear leader is perfect, he will have to execute a whole lot of people to remain in power.

In North Korea, how do you tell a failed economy from a successful one?

You’d think that anyone, with even the slightest knowledge of history, would not model his economic plan after the Communist “Five Year Plan” economic model. If nothing else, a “Ten Year Plan” or even a “Twenty Year Plan” would provide enough of a gap between plan and result that many would forget the details of the plan before it’s time to reap the consequences. Communism (and its twin, Socialism) has always failed, and will always fail. It’s just too bad that liberals always forget this, or never even learn it.

Here we go the lefty-Paleo isolationist (Neocoms) and the Qturds are about to ascend upon the thread espousing off goofy nonsense and half piped dimwitted foolish conspiracy theories KJU’s leadership is fine baring something like a heart attack or something similar of that nature.
His Sister is the leading two power and has earned the trust of the powerful elite her trip to the mount last year was full affirmation of this among other things.
In the coming weeks, and into next month the sabres will be drawn readying for provocations and war while charming the ROK of the Moonshine administration while basement Joe and the circle nerd Neocons sit by watch and hide in the basement.

Not a good time to be a NORK bureaucrat. The noise of the machine guns will be deafening.

So, who shall he kill?

If he nukes California, I hope it's not Southern California. I'm downwind.

You may notice that the solution is......
Another 5 year plan!
There is a saying that has something to do with insanity and doing the same thing over and over again.
