Yet the sanctions are specifically targeted at the ruling elite, thus a possible (other) reason for them to have their panties in a twist and blustering at South Korea and the United States (probably others as well, but the media isn't reporting all that much really).

Also wasn't China onboard for the sanctions as well? They want North Korea to go back to the six nation talks about nuclear weapons about as much as anyone else does.

(Also why am I still awake at 3 in the morning?)

As I explained with the old legend in my post, it is very hard to sanction goods that are not illegal to own by civilians. Chinese businessmen do take advantage of the (even) cheaper workforce in NK and profit from it, assuming they know the right people.

And lolis will save us all!

Come to think of it, if that is the case, then NK would survive because of their lack of connection to the real internet right?

Most of all, you have to be disciplined and you have to save, even if you hate our current financial system. Because if you don't save, then you're guaranteed to end up with nothing.

Go ahead, make my day! Let's throw out the North Koreans stealing our jobs and claim back what belongs to us!

I can see South Koreans holding this kind of tone about this.

I don't think the South Koreans would want to do the labourous work their more hardworking Northern relatives do.

The Taiwanese don't get as much military indemnity as the SK. With SK being given more, they are bound to be pissed.
