During last year’s historic Presidential campaign and since, We the People have been told that it is time for change. We have learned that our way of life has been one of conspicuous consumption and callous disregard for our own environment. We wage wars indiscriminately. Our political system is messy, with discontent on all sides barely containing a malcontented populace. Some folks with radical, individualistic views have even used dangerous and ugly rhetoric when dealing with our own elected officials. These actions strain an ample, perhaps too ample freedom of speech, and these potential terrorists are not being dealt with as they should. We have an immigration problem that is so large it can only be fixed by the total overhaul of our immigration policies. Private corporations take advantage of those already doing without and our government ignores the disadvantaged as well. These problems are endemic to the system we have in place and the time has come to fundamentally change our country but don’t worry, there’s hope.
After scouring the earth for a national model to live by, I think I have found the perfect country to design our own after, using President Obama’s Vision for America. The people of this country have a miniscule obesity problem and materialism is frowned upon. Virtually no one selfishly drives a gas guzzler; indeed, the citizens of this great land travel about their country responsibly, using only the most efficient means of transportation. Their military, while large enough to protect them from their neighbors, is isolationist in nature and they haven’t been at war in decades. Their exemplary political system is bereft of dissent, and operates with seemingly no threat of instability. Immigration issues in this great nation are non-existent. They do not share our love of or inherent problems with large private corporations. Their government feeds an estimated 62% of their population, both to show its high regard for its people and to make sure that nobody has to survive on less than another.
Watch the following video from this amazing paradise. Notice how happy everyone seems, and the great spirit of community this glorious people has managed to capture that we have lost due to our individualism. Look at the great things that can be achieved with a liberal application of collectivism, and yes, the image in the background is a human mosaic. Yep, nobody does it like North Korea. Try that, you capitalist pigs. Click here to see if you are having trouble viewing this video due to flawed Western browsers.
We need to follow the directives of our own Dear Leader, Barack Obama, and work hard to transform the United States of America into a Westernized version of North Korea, before it’s too late. We need to act fast, before more selfish residents of this flawed country band together and fight the progressive Utopia we can build together if we keep hope alive. Don’t listen to the detractors who will surely say that creating a Utopia always ends in bloodshed, starvation and misery. Confront them with these facts about North Korea and they will surely see the error of their capitalist ways. Show them that the perfect Utopian model has failed simply because it has never been implemented correctly, that is until the Great Kim Il Sung and his Dear son Kim Jong Il, brought and maintained paradise in Heaven on Earth, North Korea. YES, PRESIDENT OBAMA, WE CAN!
