I read somewhere that North Korea and Iran are the only countries left with sound finances (i.e. no foreign banks allowed to operate, thus no fractional reserve scam). If we were to join this truly elite club, hmmm, who knows… regaining the status of a respected country of international importance could be easier.

its no wonder Iran is cash rich, we give them billions. As for N Korea the way they make money is to starve the people and cash in on intellectual theft like the CCP

I strongly believe what alt Substack authors write. Many subjects overlap, some appear to be very very up to date with the world at large, but all of them sing in one voice that the mainstream media lie, the government lie, the politicians lie. I now take it for granted.

All the information about Iran and North Korea comes from the same mouth: mainstream media, government, politicians. Soooo… if they lie, they must also lie about Iran being bad boys and North Korea being a bad place to live. And about, as you wrote, CCP intellectual theft (I don’t know what it means).

Maybe the big three (mainstream media, government, politicians) lie only about good things (like our economy, employment market, education, loans, healthcare overload) and tell the truth about bad things?
