Enviro-Paradise vs. Industrial Wasteland
In one simple satellite photo, one can see a stark contrast between energy-wasting South Korea, and pristine, energy-saving North Korea. Under capitalism, South Korea has clearly become an industrial wasteland--profligate in its unsparing energy extravagance. North Korea under communism has grown into a veritable enviro-paradise to a degree virtually unknown anywhere else in the world.A better argument against capitalism and in favour of communism could not be constructed in words. Well, actually Al Fin could construct a better argument in words, but he is far too humble to admit it.
So take a moment to comtemplate if all the world were like North Korea--what a wonderful world it would be.

Hehe, good stuff. North Koreans enjoy a smaller carbon footprint, er, a smaller footprint anyway. They are half a foot shorter than their counterparts to the south.
You got it. It is so tragic, you almost have to laugh at it to clear your head.
To think, that is what the dieoff.org folks want to do to the whole planet.
