Countries like N Korea, Russia, Saudi, are not likely to want our commercial political system. But maybe?

Question

maybe they could be persuaded to bring in some democracy and freedoms with a system of gradual change, generous retirements and guarantees. What if they were persuaded to assemble some particularly clued-up and intelligent minds to come up with a system that brings slow but solid change in the right direction about?

The Saudis are filthy rich, they are an absolute monarchy. They do big business with the U.S. the way they are and U.S. backs them up. So does the U.N. even though they are the worst human rights offenders in that region.  Why would dictators and tyrants want to change their system? What do you care anyway?

Would that be "American collusion"?

Russia has democracy though.... The communist is over now since 1992-1993. They might have it, or not. It's about money getting lost, and a lot of scary change to the citizens.

In "the right direction" eh? Why do you believe those nations feel the need to be persuaded to implement changes to their society? The US and allies tried to change N Koreas way of life and we failed in the 50s. We tried to change N Vietnams way of life too, and we failed in the 70s. We've been trying to change the Russians since the end of WW2. No luck there either. What so many people in the west don't seem to get is that not every country on the planet is at all interested in other nations "intelligent minds" trying to rework their nations. It won't work.

Did it ever occur to you that the world doesn't want to be the USA?
