World does not need that many avg programmers not everybody is and can be Ulrich Drepper or Richard Stallman.
US is a superpower and if it wants to keep its allies alive it needs to do something for them as well. Your double standards really surprise me.
US cannot afford to loose SK but if the US keeps ignoring the NK/China problem that will push SK more and more to the hands of Chinese.
Sooner or later you will realize that koreans are the bffs of China, Japan feels threatened and there is nothing you can do about that boiling hot pot that formed in the Pacific.
It's not about NK's suffering population at all. Nobody cares about them and that is what's scary.
1) NK's ICBMs program is much more advanced than SK's 2) Young generation is openly doubting the regime 3) There's a lot of smuggling of SK's soap operas and music 4) Their nuclear research is top-notch considering the circumstances 5) All other parties involved (US,China,Japan,South Korea, Russia) are all to be blamed for suffering of 25 millions of people living in an artificial skansen of communism. 6) Praising the great leader is one way how to protect yourself and your family when the "democratic, cool westerners" are not going to help you.
And the guy is openly preaching China for being much more advanced ? NK's regime is scary but the one in China is even scarier. They are pragmatic criminals that embraced the art of trade.
US and SK should have invaded and liberated the NK long time ago. They are as much part of the problem as the NK's leadership is.
