Spending untold dollars on the military that would be better spent doing something for the citizens of the country.

You see, defense is in the Best Korean constitution. Spending that money on people is unconstitutional and just supporting deadbeats that feel entitled to their fellow citizens' money.

ah, so you say the military spending is for our defense.

If you're from the United States, I don't think we have any place to judge, subby.

Buddy of mine just returned from a 6 month tour in Pohang.
He said the best part of the trip was running minesweeping ops along the 38th.

Swears we'd be better off letting the N & S duke it out because no matter what happens, the only place that could smell worse is an Ecuadorian prison.

it might cost $850 million to build and launch this in USA or South Korea where they pay people... what would the cost in North Korea be though? $10million?

$850 million, enough to feed 19 million people for one year

$850 million ÷ 19 million people/year = $44.74 per person per year

$44.74/person/year ÷ 365 days/year = 12¢ per person per day

$64 and three Happy Meals.

Makes perfect sense to me, but I am still working with CS2 so YMMV...

Do I also get a picture of the dictator that I'm supporting with my donations? Maybe a note from him at Christmas?

FTA: A South Korean military officials said North Korea should spend the money on food for its hungry people, rather than rocket technology, Yonhap News Agency reported Monday

Considering a lot of people in the countryside are reduced to eating grass and dirt, 12c a day could make a difference.

In other words, three times the GDP of Best Korea.

"it'll feed your kid for a month. More if you don't like him so much."

/Actually, 12 cents is about what it costs to feed kids rice & beans in Africa. Costs a little more if you add meat.

I like the linked article about Japan being ready to shoot it down.

If Japan opposes your strategy for nuclear domination you know you're getting somewhere.

lennavan: If you're from the United States, I don't think we have any place to judge, subby.

What about if we want the United States to stop doing the same thing too?

/Not Subby.

No worries, they'll just print more cash to make up for it.

It's not like tree bark costs that much. They'll be fine.

Those Japanese sure get all bent when someone fires a nuke anywhere NEAR them.

north korea's leaders are crazy like foxes.

Yah!!!! Not to mention those sluts, and the welfare queens with refrigerators and caddilacs

/Wait we were talking about North Korea? sorry my bad I got confused by the BEST part

Well here's the thing: they don't need to spend that money on food because we're going to give them food aid. Yeah, we got our knickers in a knot and "suspended" it for a little while because of their stupid missile test, but c'mon, we can't stay mad forever. How many times did they lie and screw us over on nukes, and yet there we were shoveling North Korea Chow their way yet again? So they're really not irresponsible at all. We are.

Well, except that our people haven't been eating dirt and rocks for the last five years, our lights are all still on, most our people are employed, and we don't have to worry about the fat retarded son of our pervert president becoming our leader anytime soon.

But you're right, the US is EXACTLY like No. Korea.

I wouldn't call Chelsea fat or retarded so there's that, and don't worry after president Rommtorum institutes it's "reforms" you'll get there

/Detroit is a trial

Nuke 'em from orbit. Put the people out of their suffering and stop them before they become a real threat.

So that's like 108 dollars to them. You can buy a lot with 108 per day.

But you're right, the US is EXACTLY like No. Korea. No one in the US is starving and our infrastructure needs no work done to it, therefore it's okay for the US to spend billions of dollars a year on the military.

I disagree!

This thread has hit a new low when anticapitalist progressitards compare people dying of starvation over there to ANYONE in the U.S.

If you really give a damn, do or say something that might actually help those people, instead of spouting the usual verbal diarrhea and waste of bandwidth.

How did it cost N.Korea anything?

They build it themselves, with their own technology and materials. I doubt they would have had more food if they send their scientists out into the rice fields, though they could possible earn some money by selling this shiat to Iran or whatever.

South Korea does propaganda as well.
