This one sums up my thoughts

Yet another right wing off the rails diatribe from the Post Editorial Board. Apparently the millionaire class fears a successful populist. The mayor elect just talks about what everyone should know- the real Division in the US is between the rich and everyone else who they treat as serfs. Anything that benefits common people is derided as a waste of money. Calling teacher union leadership " bosses". That is rich. These union leaders are elected and represent teachers, an often unappreciated and underpaid group of public employees. Undoubtedly the ultralight are greedy and selfish and do little to nothing to contribute to the common good. They make great efforts to avoid paying their fare share of taxes, oppose increasing wages and spend lots of money trying to buy governmental influence. The Post editorial Board has been reduced to Bezos's mouthpiece.
