North Koreans probably regret starting the war. And it wasn't just the Yanks. Quite a few countries had troops there. Unsurprising since it was, and still is, a UN war.

It was a proxy war between China and the USA. Saying "the North Koreans started it" is very simplistic.

I think DP counts the last 10 years as a failure because benefits haven't increased with inflation (not enough to get the young and healthy "can't be bothered" lot to try and get a job tough).

Inflation outpacing wages - workers worse off.
Not all good news.

Err, looked at government borrowing recently? Consumer debt?
Easy to have low unemployment with zero hours contracts etc, and making it very difficult to get any form of unemployment benefit.
