Comment on FBI says North Korea deployed thousands of IT workers to get remote jobs in US with fake IDs

  Are they just talking about taxes? I was thinking the NK government might be asking the workers for some ‘voluntary’ donations. If it is just the government taxing them and part of the tax revenue going towards the military then it doesn’t seem like anything illegal is happening. Well, apart from the faking IDs part, but a bunch of poor people faking IDs to get jobs is a much much smaller issue than the NK government faking IDs to fund nukes.

    Every time I see a comment about North Korea, I recommend watching “The Haircut” by BoyBoy. You can find it on YouTube. It’s just 20 minutes long and it’s quite entertaining to watch.

    There’s a nice part on the video about the “Prison Camps” and “Death Squads” which are applicable to “voluntary donations” as well. It also applies to the “poor people of NK” as well.
