The gray market economy is very, very vague. It makes the news because it is surprising. Why not permit them, though? They have no influence on anything. Looking at what pictures are available, posted by travelers, they are rather insignificant.
I noticed today's MOAB in Afghanistan. Sure it was a message, but it also had a practical purpose on the ground. I think if something was done in North Korea, it would also have a practical purpose. The cruise missiles in Syria are another example.
Going back to North Korea, what if the Americans, Japanese and South Koreans saw a missile flying high overhead, while in international waters, and felt threatened and shot it down? Shot them all down. It takes away a testing ability. Just thinking of a message and a practical action joined.
They say that North Korea has a missile submarine. But, it would have to be threatening, I suppose.
Just ideas for the discussion. Off to patrol for a missile sub.
