Quote:I would argue that communism doesn't work, especially in today's world.

 

 

North Korea started out as a communist state, but rather quickly turned into a more totalitarian state.  They really aren't an example of communism today.

Some would argue that the DPRK is not really Communist at all. It follows a strict Korean philosophy called: "Juche" or "self-reliance". Kim ll Sung believed that Korea didn't need to rely on things such as western imports or foreign trade in order to survive. He believed that Korea could reply solely upon itself and create a true worker's paradise.  Clearly, he was wrong.
