Its funny, I was sitting around watching T.V. and my eyes wandered to my bookshelf in my living room and I have a few of George Orwell's books and I thought about how Animal Farm was written about the communist revolution in Russia and the coming to power of Stalin who installed the great system of totalitarianism.
Then my eye's wandered over to 1984 when I was basically in Junior high school and we had the big debates about what was coming true in that book in comparison to modern society.
But if you read that book and you look at North Korea you realize that they never left 1984 and in fact its been 1984 since Kim Il-Sung was put into power by Stalin himself.
