Meanwhile a $20 billion Wall gets built between the US and a neighbor. Tariffs get slapped on their goods and foreign relations deteriorate. But we gift “economic help” to a nation on the other side of the world. Makes perfect fucking sense to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wall will never be built. Our economy is great. We eliminate an enemy and bring their people into our labor pool for our consumer economy. Win win.

There already is more progress there than the last 50 years. I'm still very suspicious of whats going on. Why would China want them in the international labor market?

Who shot down a USN recon EC-121 in international airspace resulting in the loss of 31 US lives on April 18, 1969?

The Chi-Coms will infuse NK with a huge amount cash to keep them China friendly, the last thing the chinks want is any kind of US friendly country along the Yalu River. Little Rocket Man is playing with a stacked deck this time, it's actually quite impressive how he has NK positioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember as a child listening to my father tell stories about how they used to live in bunkers in fear of the north Koreans attacking them in southern Illinois. Terrifying times that must have been. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
