  20. <north korea is this shit because of cuthroat sanctions. > Because North Korea cares more about antagonizing South Korea and Japan than developing an economy worthy of its Juche name. Plus, by the way, the sanctions are nothing compared to the Kims' economic repression against their own citizens and the loss of Soviet aid to cover for its lack of industry due to the Kims' heavy-handed control. <#1 social housing is nearly non existent. more and more nations privatized social housing instance to companies. they are now brokers with extra benefits.> Thanks to governments mismanaging and all but completely bankrupting it.
