I would love to see the unification of Korea.
I don't know why China is supporting North Korea.
But it's about time, some forceful aggressive action to be taken to free North Koreans from that stupid dictatorship.
Socialists love socialists. The insane love the insane.
Actually the question would be more accurately put as to why China, whose govt. is the richest of Asia's state fascist capitalists, skimming off of its discount, virtual slave labor, supports N. Korea's fascist theocratic hero-worship, society, starving on its own lack of any redeeming value at all ?
So it's much more accurate to say that fascist state capitalists love other fascists even though they aren't socialists or capitalists.
I think Wash., may threaten but talk this one out. No oil or profit in an Asian war.
For Iran however, that's where I am placing my bets. Lots of oil and lots of profit. And yes, the western bankers/investors will lend us the money as rates trickle up and let's face it...bloody yes (and rest assured it won't be their blood) but a good bet nonetheless.
Capitalism is freedom. There is nothing about China that is free. Chinese Dear Leaders are hardline racist communists, and at some point Dear Leader realized that socialism is a dead end road so they literally stole ideas from capitalists and employed them in their socialist slave state
Because socialist Dear Leaders do literally anything they want, as there is no freedom under a socialist system that has gone full socialist, the situation you see in China is an end result of socialist ideology
China was communist system which is not socialist. Under communism all property is owned by the state and the people are politically and economically (their labor) owned by the state.
Capitalism is a market based economy where the market can be and in China...is also owned by the state...i. e., state capitalism as the US has shown itself also a state capitalism when govt. chooses to prop up private corruption and property and when bankers defraud, leverage and steal only to have the people, the taxpayers at large, forced to bail them out twice now. (RTC and TARP) Plus the private profit/public risk regime in govt. insurance. Thus capitalism does no more guarantee freedom other then the protection of private property and even then not in all cases.
China and Nazi Germany which became a fascist capitalist system (Italy too) has nothing to do with political freedom or freedom of movement. The economies as in the US, are not free and are not free market except for those markets with no political power. Small markets are allowed to fail, big markets...are not.
The state in both countries regulate the the very existence of markets, centralized banking and the supply of capital, do not regulate banks except in the interest of the state and private bankers, and allow profiteering by those too big to fail which if were not protected by state capitalism, would be...to big to exist.
On the large state dependent matters, there is right now, scant difference in the govt.'s relationship to business and the economies between China and the US.
