Apple has 98,000 employees and earned $39.5 billion after tax over the past year. If Apple was a worker cooperative, then each employee would’ve received a $403,000 dividend on top of their salaries. Even the lowest paid worker would’ve earned at least $403,000 in Apple as worker cooperative.

Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea): Full Text of Kim Jong Un Speech On Nuclear Weapons Policy
We are pleased to present to our readers a very significant policy speech given by Kim Jong Un, the General Secretary of the Korean Workers Party and President of State Affairs. In this speech, he clearly warns the United States that he and his government are prepared to defend the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK, known in the US as “North Korea”), including the use of nuclear weapons if the DPRK is faced with an invasion from the USA, the South Korean puppet regime of the US, or both.
The context of the speech is important. As we wrote in the previous article to this one, the United States has engaged in decades of deadly provocations against the Korean workers state in the form of constant “war games” in preparation for initiating an attempt to overthrow the DPRK and restore capitalist exploitation to North Korea. However, in the past several years, the United States has started to openly proclaim its intention to “decapitate” the leadership of the DPRK in a massive attack from South Korea which may include the use of nuclear weapons to destroy the defensive underground bunkers which the workers of the DPRK constructed to survive the massive bombing campaign the US launched against them in the Korean War, killing an estimated 3 million North Koreans. In response, North Korea has – in spite of crushing US sanctions that have caused immense suffering for the workers of the DPRK – embarked on a crash program to develop a nuclear arsenal capable of defending their country. We wholeheartedly agree with this heroic attempt by North Korea to defend itself from the psychotic warmongers of the US imperialist capitalist class and their murderous gangster regime in Washington. The US government is the #1 terrorist threat in the world today! Defend the DPRK! End All Sanctions Against the DPRK Immediately! US Out of the Korean Peninsula Now!

Quiet Quitting is Work to Rule
Sep 3, 2022 – An exploration of the term Quiet Quitting which keeps appearing in corporate propaganda articles. There is already a term for this that more correctly blames employers called Work to Rule. We explore the labor implications of such a term and some of the articles that blame employees and low end management instead of executives and the system of Capitalism.
Quiet Quitting is Work to Rule via Anarchistara
I’m not even bothering to link to any corporate media articles, on “quiet quitting”, as they mostly tend to demonize workers, for not working overtime, or taking on extra work. When I worked overtime, on a salary, I was only paid $3 per hour (minimum wage was $7.25 and still is), after 40 hours, and most of the time, it was mandatory overtime. I was expected to do the same work, as everyone else (who made $7.25 + time and a half for overtime), and manage the business at the same time (I was young, single, and dumb). I’m not going to demonize anyone for not going above and beyond without proper compensation.
