Reply #20: That goes against current economical evidence

...a united penninsula garrisoning US forces. That would pose both an economic and a military threat.

With a united Korea, why would the US still station troops there. NK, the reason they're there, wouldn't exist any longer.

And how could it be construed as an economic threat? China does more business by magnitudes with SK than with NK, North Korea's fiscal instability has bankrupted some Chinese companies that have traded with North Korean counterparts and North Korea is a source of over 300,000 refugees in Chinese territory, because some North Korean nationals have been crossing the border in search of food.

A united Korea would be in China's best economic interest.
