Where Would You Like to Live?

This is a very interesting picture. That's the Korean peninsula at night. Above, the communist North. Below, the free market South. As Donald Rumseld points out, these are the same people, with the same history, and the same natural resources. Yet the South Koreans live a modern, comfortable existence, while the North Koreans live, with the exception of their "Dear Leader," no better than a medieval existence.

How there can be people in this world that continue to advocate socialism and communism over capitalism in the face of this stark reality is entirely beyond me.
