Economy of South Korea
South Korea has a market economy which ranks 15th in the world by nominal GDP and 12th by purchasing power parity (PPP), identifying it as one of the G-20 major economies. It is a high-income developed country, with an emerging economy,[5] and is a member of OECD. South Korea is one of the Asian Tigers, and is the only developed country so far to have been included in the group of Next Eleven countries. South Korea had one of the world's fastest growing economies from the early 1960s to the late 1990s, and South Korea is still one of the fastest growing developed countries in the 2000s, along with Hong Kong, Singapore, and Taiwan, the other three members of Asian Tigers.[6] South Koreans refer to this growth as the Miracle on the Han River.[7] Having almost no natural resources and always suffering from overpopulation in its small territory, which deterred continued population growth and the formation of a large internal consumer market, South Korea adapted an export-oriented economic strategy to fuel its economy, and in 2010, South Korea was the sixth largest exporter and tenth largest importer in the world

i consider causing a further war in korea a definite non-improvement.
korea was a toy being ripped apart by china, soviet russia and the usa.
massacres pre-korean war occurred.
uprisings occurred
the koreans wanted a korean solution.
korea is different from japan or germany.
japan and germany were aggressors.
korea was a victim.
vietnam was a victim.
this is about unwanted and unwarranted US american influence in other states political systems.
and not about if the countries survived the "influence" and made it anyway.

Sorry. I edited my post. but again lets look at you're statement..

Would you like to rephrase it?
The youth of the middle east want democracy.
They have protested for it in these countries.
You would think Americans would be glad
That would be nice. I don't believe you know bvery much about the region. In fact, I know you don't. This could be either very good or very bad, depending upon who the new regime is. You would know that if you actually understood the middle east
The administration is caught between the longstanding U.S. allegiance to Mubarak and its desire not to look soft on human rights or complicit with Mubarak's harsh tactics in dealing with the protestors. The messaging has been shifting over the course of the three-day unrest, due to internal and outside pressure on the administration to speak out more about the issue of democracy.
"We want to partner with the Egyptian people and their government to realize their aspirations to live in a democratic society that respects basic human rights," Clinton said on Friday, adding a line about democracy to the official message. No one has yet said anything, however, about breaking with Mubarak altogether.
Egyptian Government Steps Down, But Protests Continue Unabated - Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty 2011The protest movement has been bolstered by leading Egyptian dissident and Nobel laureate Muhammad El-Baradei, who returned to Egypt from Vienna to join what many already describe as a revolution.
El-Baradei has indicated he would be prepared to lead a transitional authority if he were asked. He was reported to be under house arrest but told France 24 television on January 29 that he intends to continue demonstrating.
"I will continue to participate in whatever it takes to make sure that the Mubarak regime should leave," he said. "I think that there is a consensus here in Egypt -- in every part of society -- that this is a regime that is dictatorial, that has failed to deliver on economic, social, or political fronts, and that we need a new beginning -- an Egypt that is free and that is democratic. And we need to go through a transitional period."
Egypt's opposition movements, including the banned Muslim Brotherhood, have also called for a peaceful transfer of power.
The unrest, which follows street protests that toppled Tunisian strongman Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali two weeks ago, is unprecedented for the tightly controlled country.
The 82-year-old Mubarak ... made clear, however, that he intends to stay in power and accused protesters of destabilizing the country.
He also pledged to introduce reforms and ordered troops and tanks into the capital, Cairo, and several other Egyptian cities.
Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak named a vice president for the first time in his presidency. Mubarak named Omar Suleiman, Mubarak's intelligence chief, who has lead major foreign policy issues in Egypt such as the Palestinian-Israeli peace process, according to The Associated Press.

I don't think Americans should be talking about other nations economic problems.yes well ask an Iranian how he feels the clerics are doing? Or if he thought the country would be in economic straits its in and facing your everyday shortage 30 years after the revolution?

Well, with $1.3 billion in US aid going to Egypt annually, guess how long it would take before that's yanked if the Brotherhood assumes power. UN sanctions on Iran exist, and even more US sanctions were added recently. If Egypt (which has little oil production) is cut off and loses its tourist trade, how will it survive? At least Iran still has its resources to market.

I doubt they would shut down the tourist trade.
People would still be allowed to visit the Pyramids and other tourist attractions.
