I am well aware of the idiosyncrasies of the “ruling class”.
But they are a small segment of American society. Of course many of us “think” they are members of that class. For some reason I have never separated America into classes. I judge and accept or reject ALL people on the merits of demerits of their own character. Don’t you?
The real “ruling class” of the world separate themselves from the rest of us in many ways, preferring to remain overt though powerful.
