N Korea copes with no food, no economy, no jobs by setting up a million or two people army for its youth.
But the cyber-era has interfered with any hope of building a civilian economy or an adequate food system to feed everybody.
A situation which old line developed nations will face for the next 25 or so yrs.
I hope they just throw open the gates and become absorbed with the South.

(10,005 posts)let me try. We only employ 50% of college grads now and IMO, the advances in technology will drop that to about 25% of the youth population over the next 25yrs.
So 75% of education is not needed, jobs is the problem, but what do we do with the unemployed population(maybe as high of 75%).

a cult of personality.
Which renders your argument utterly foolish on its face.
