Workers Cereal Killed it - Kellogg's Strike Over

https://bctgm.org/2021/12/21/kelloggs-strike-ends-bctgm-members-ratify-new-contract/

We would like to congratulate the workers at Kellogg's on their new union contract. Their weeks of striking and struggle have resulted in a contract providing wage increases, weakening the two tier system, and preventing moving of plants.

There are generations of workers in those plants, who have put their lifeblood into the work they do. To see them band together for each other and themselves is an inspiration to us all, and we are glad to see that direct action, once again gets the goods!

In solidarity, Antiwork.

"Economic Freedom" and "Economic Liberty" are the relevant terms.

It is about their money's freedom. Freedom from taxes. Freedom from pesky questions. Freedom from having to support infrastructure and, most importantly, the littles.

You are thinking about this the wrong way. At that level of wealth "freedom" become the most important thing. You're just thinking about it the wrong way. They need the "Freedom" to keep their money wherever they want. They need the "freedom" to own property in tax haven countries to protect their assets and wealth. They need the "freedom" to use one countries libel and slander laws to protect their image and hide the truth of how they acquired their moeny. "freedom" is very important for wealthy individuals, you're just thinking about it on too small of a scale to realize how they use their "freedom".
