Centrally planned Capitalism?
More like a socially engineered economic utopia.
"They are bringing in politically correct people and taking out the old people….”
“North Koreans in 1997 quietly began moving people out of Sinuiju--usually people considered politically undesirable--in anticipation of designating it a special economic zone.”
“ 200,000 residents of Sinuiju would be moved out, while 500,000 others with technical and administrative skills</b would move in.”
“Sinuiju lies just across the Yalu River from the Chinese city of Dandong. Its proximity to China has made it more prosperous….Although he believes that European companies will be interested in the project, he says it is mostly geared to trade with China. "The location is ideal."”
“Under the leadership of Yang, the enclave is to enjoy freedoms unimaginable elsewhere in North Korea. It is to have its own government, its own laws, the right to issue passports and a basic law that guarantees "no discrimination on the basis of sex, nationality, political belief or religion." Foreigners--Americans included--are to be allowed not only to invest but to participate in local government.”
As we know in our country, you can’t simply legislate equality.
All this reminds me of that Twilight Zone episode where the people found out they where just pets of Giant Aliens.
