We stopped em (communists) in Korea, we'd stop em again in Vietnam. However, we didn't repeat one mistake...we did NOT invade North Vietnam as we DID invade North Korea during the Korean War. That action (in Korea) brought Red China into the war. We bombed North Vietnam, but did not invade it.
Examples of absolute and comparative advantage?
Absolute advantage: Vietnam can produce 1000 million tons of rice while South Korea can produce 800 million tons of rice => Vietnam has absolute advantage (since it can produce more than Korea) Comparative advantage: Same example: Vietnam and Korea. To produce 1 more tonnes of rice, Vietnam has to give up producing 3 cars. However, to produce 1 more tonnes of rice, South Korea only have to give up producing 1 cars. => There is a lower opportuniy cost for Korea to produce rice. i.e. South Korea has the comparative advantage.

What proof exists that the Korean War was bloodier than the Vietnam War?
For now, we have very limited proof that the Koren War was bloodier. This is basically because the wars were fought during completely different times. The technological development from Korea to Vietnam was immense. So i would have to say that ultimately the Vietnam war was bloodier than the Korean War for the U.S. We lost more soldiers in Vietnam than any other war and knowing this fact, one can conclude that the Vietnam War was more bloodier.
