I have a hard time understanding why someone with a conscience would spend money in a brutal, repressive regime. Do you have any compunction about giving money that supports such a regime? Is there a level of brutality and oppression that would make you not want to directly support that brutality and oppression? EDIT: I seem to have hit a nerve. Is it always OK to vacation in a brutal regime? If so why? I'd love hear why directly giving money to the North Korean regime is an acceptable thing to do.
