Why is North Korea poorer than South Korea or Japan?

Haha if anything it's more telling about you. If you think women undermine their friends, when they actually have strong sisterhood & overall kind & loyal to each-other. Please experience women outside of Youtube clips & porn.

Way to go off topic btw

I didn't go off topic. You don't know women well if you think there would be a more peaceful world with women as leaders. Women are far more manipulative than men. It's expected. While historically men are able to get what they want with brute force women had to develop a different strategy.

Merkel is an old DDR spy whose objective is to weaken the West. It's fantastic that west Germans don't see it. Just look where she builds mosques:

What exactly about communism does she want to implement in Germany in your view? No more free market or what?

It's hard to say what she has on her mind, but no doubt it's something abysmal.

Let us first hold an experiment in which the full sanctions regime in place against North Korea is applied on the South as well, give the South Korean economy 5 years to adapt, and then we'll talk about the merits of a market system relative to a planned economy. I'd be surprised if after 5 years the South, with its export-oriented economy, is able to feed even half of the people that the North manages to feed.
