    Likely North Korean defector sneaks back across the border from South Korea into the isolated land of Kim Jong Un - CBS News
    (Two sources in case there's a paywall)

    Local media say he's believed to have struggled to adapt to his new life in Seoul, but the motivation for his apparent return to North Korea remained unclear on Monday. He was first noticed missing on December 30. After he entered North Korea on New Year's Day, South Korean officials say he was taken away by three North Korean soldiers.


    Who knew that there are people in this world who can't compete? Maybe the world needs places like North Korea just to allow the non-competitive population to live in>?

    I'm sure the lack of nutritious food during their early, formative years, and a lack of proper schooling, caused them to fall behind and they are not capable of ever catching up.

    So, anyway, they think the guy who crossed over from South to North Korea couldn't adapt to the competitive society in the South. And couldn't reach the level of prosperity seen on TV, and that there are few in South Korea who actually can afford that lifestyle.

    Maybe the world does need Communism after all. But not everywhere, just in a single state where we can ship the poor and destitute. How about that instead of welfare programs? Interesting idea? ;) :)
