>> there's always something worse, but that doesn't really help, does it No, it doesn't. It's really quite sad that the best the people of any nation can hope for, is that their government doesn't rape them too hard. The US is quite a police state already, but hey, at least it's not North-Korea.. yet. It could be in a few years though. Tyrannical regimes come and go, but that's just business as usual, especially as long as it "can't happen here".. It's almost as if mankind could do better than this.. It's almost as if something was wrong on a global scale.

It's pretty interesting why we hear so much about NK but the rhetoric isn't nearly as harsh when hearing about the crazy societies in East Africa. Such flexible moralities at work here.
