The 2009 North Korean constitution dropped any reference to Marxism–Leninism. It was a slow evolution from communism started in the early 70's, with any trace of marxism gone by the late 80's.Partially, you have examples such as TVA or DWP in Los Angeles.. Both government owned.That is what they want. They want government to control everything. They do not give one damn shit if the masses don't have electricity. The globalist elites say FUCK THE MASSES.
Except the masses only have electricity in this country because the government builds the infrastructure. In a "free market", they would only electrify the areas it is profitable to do so.
The government has nothing to do with power production other than granting a monopoly to the local power utility. Government does not "build the infrastructure."
And, yes, private companies would only electrify areas where it is profitable to do so. Why should they do anything else?
Also the core ideology of North Korea is Juche aka self reliance. Very much the opposite of what you're discussing. This ideology is under a de-facto
totalitarian dictatorship.
This Juche ideology completely replaced marxist-leninist in the 80's. Its just like "pull yourself up by the bootstraps".
The core ideology of NK is socialism/communism. There is really no distinction between the two. This "Jucha" shit is a meaningless diversion. It's propaganda. There's no evidence whatsoever of it being practiced.
Juche is the core ideology, however its evolved over the decades. Its all about spartan austerity, sacrifice and discipline demanded by the party. Anybody who says differently doesnt know shit about NK.
Venezuela is another authoritarian state primarily dependent on oil. When the price drops, they suffer.
