This is kind of their thing WDYM? The flaw of Soviet-style autarky is that you can’t uproot imperialism by cutting yourself off from it, not a failure to meet the basic needs of the people.
Expect the DPRK to become an industrial powerhouse now that China and Russia are warming up to them more. South Korea, eventually, will play a huge part in its development. Think Iran, but not menaced by Israel, holding nuclear weapons. Very intriguing situation. Most nations are still behind Iran in rocket technology. “You can just lock in and do things.”
Hold up, North Korea has universal health care?
Yep.
We’re ashamed to admit it’s the same system Canada uses; just with more investment.
Edit: oh, and also Cuba! But Cuba is doing far better than expected given its poverty level, because Cubans are super-human.
