#1 "The suffering and tears of the people of North Korea demand action," commission Chairman Michael Kirby told news hounds.

"Now outta my way. The Buffet Line just opened."

#2 The whole 'crimes against humanity' thing aside, we owe a debt of gratitude to the Norks. It is not often in the fuzzy sciences like economics that we get to do actual controlled experiments. However, in the late 20th century, we got to do it twice, once with Germany and once with Korea.

In both cases, we took a single country and split it in half. Once side got a free-market economy, the other got communism. The results were definitive and indisputable: communism sucks. That famous graphic is a visual example.

On behalf of everyone, I would like to thank the North Koreans for their...um, participation.
