And..... again.... There is no 'Class' in America. You might be prepared to allow your politicians to use this 'class' shit to divide you from other hard working Americans, but I am not.
No class? There are entire fields devoted to studying class. Not to mention the federal government uses cut offs (also known as classes) to determine the poverty level you ingrate. There are classes based on income, power, wealth (which is different from income) crime....etc. you can accept them or not but they exist because the government needs to calculate and keep records on who qualifies for assistance, where inequalities exist and why. Political Scientists need class information, Social Scientists need class information, Economists need class information, Anthropologists need class information......therefore class information exists because there is a use for it. You may not feel like you are in a class, but the fact that someone is using you as a statistic in order to determine the state of affairs means that class is a very important part of peoples lives, some even base their entire career on it.
