The US has attacked North Korea constantly economically and killed 20% of its population in the 1950s. It economically supported South Korea. You are complaining about the results of this attack. In the 1970s the DPRK was economically outpacing the south and the US stepped up support to prevent capitalism from looking like shit.
- hollerith 1y agoThe US did support SK, e.g., by giving it "most favorable nation" trading status, but NK had supporters, too, in the USSR and China. >In the 1970s the DPRK was economically outpacing the south -- according to statistics published by the DPRK.
