None of the other Kim children really have a power base either, though. Any one of them would likely face the same problem that Jong Un has. Recall that Kim Jong Il spent decades under his father building and consolidating his, and largely during more prosperous times, while none of his own children have had that same opportunity. The best another Kim could hope for would probably to be installed as a figurehead puppet for either whoever has currently accumulated the most political capital if they felt for some reason they couldn't or would rather not be the public face of the government, or for a Chinese-backed government. But even then it probably doesn't last. If Jong Un is really out, it's probably over for the main branch Kims.

There would have to be some sort of plan to distribute current state property and wealth in the North to its people, and that could potentially help offset the initial difference, but more likely it would just be a huge mess like Russia where a bunch of assholes got insanely wealthy relieving the poor of their shares for a few months wages or whatever.

Vagabundo posted:Isn't it in a bit of a state as well? Like structurally and all. Like a Health & Safety person would run away screaming in mortal terror levels of structural issues? That's my understanding. Low quality non-prestressed poorly reinforced concrete that was showing signs of cracking shifting and deforming before they covered it all up with glass. I'm surprised the windows haven't all started popping off, really.

Their harvest probably looks pretty bad or something and this is their way of getting additional food aid.

Now let me tell you about how they're going to load it onto a freight car and take it across from Kaesong by rail like maybe half a kilometer into the south before the ROK dynamite the tracks.

Sounds like we're calling their bluff. Joint military exercises were temporarily suspended, but have been started back up. So like, whatever, world keeps on spinning.
