People with money can buy things. They understand that they have rights and the ability to use them. They understand that they are more than just pawns for the 1%. They can afford to go to school and got one of them "librul" educations. These things are not good for the 1% and their efforts to control everything.

Victories like these also demonstrate that unions are actually good for working people, not something the right wants after decades of demonizing them.

So natually, Faux hates this type of thing.
