How can it be a "working class" suburb if nobody has any jobs there?

As if the rioters are the type of people who would go hold down a job. Today: I'm burning a store to the ground - Tomorrow: I'm an accountant. Gimme a break

I think working-class is a another name for a slum!

Because not working IS the French definition of "working!"

(Is this what they mean by "schadenfreude?")

I think "working class" refers to the type of workers. In either case, the riots definitely caught me by surprise. If France and Germany are models for socialism, then it has failed.

The Washington Post captured what the rioters people want.

"We want the American dream!!!"

That's the odd thing about shantytown. The residents are industrious, hard-working people. It's mostly business under the radar. That is the fault of the Gummint.
