[ClaireSolt]

In what dream world do you circulate where you get to misuse terms and then call people nasty when they call you on it? Words have meaning and class means somethings specific that are NOT applicable in America. The main attribute of class is inabiity to change. Telling people who are not in classes that they are is nasty. And where do you come off being so abusive when you don’t know what you are talking about, at all! Marx defined class conflict and sociologgy studies it. I guess you know little of either.
