The REAL Napster

The plight of the North Korean people is a very sad one, however the root of the problems exist in their communist affilation towards life. Get rid of Kimmie and maybe the country will have a chance. Funny how the South Koreans are not as bad off. Oh wait, Kimmie doesn't run that country, the South Koreans do.
