I think YOU are missing MY point.
My wife's relatives DO NOT HAVE THE CHOICE to oppose their government and watch CNN on TV.
They have no TV.
They have no electricity.
They would gladly watch whatever state propaganda was being broadcast onto a TV if they could afford to have a TV.
WHY ARE YOU SHOUTING. Like you sig. line, SHOUTING does NOT get PEOPLE to DO ANYTHING!
Ok fine your grandmother-inlaw is dirty poor, wow good for you. I have several friends who are Jamaican. And guess what, they are not dirt poor. They
have TV and power and water. One left the US to go and live in Jamaica. She is now moving from Jamaica to Grand Cayman for a better job. Just try that
in NK see how well that goes. That is the problem with anacdotal evidence, it is not evidence of a macro problem. Everybody has a story about this or
that person who...blah blah blah.
Fact is there are some places on this world where it sucks to live. NK is on most people's top ten. Jamaica...is not.
