Talk:Palace economy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The last sentence "According to press and U.S. government reports, the North Korean state also engages in a wide array of illicit activities in order to fund the ruling elite's lifestyle." is irrelevant to the discussion on palace economies, as arguments could be made to show that the U.S. engages in similarly illicit or illegal activities. An explanation of palace economies has little to do with who's élites are committing "illicit activities".
