The Myth of a Middle Class

"A lie keeps growing and growing until it's as plain as the nose on your face." - The Blue Fairy, Pinocchio, 1940 O.K. Pilgrims. Answer these questions by raising your hands out there: How many were taught that we were to be a Middle Class nation? How many believe that, despite this, there is a Low, Middle, and Upper Class in American Society? How many of you were taught that this is just the way it is in America? How many of you were taught that we should aspire to achieve that vaunted Middle Class life? If so, your immigrant ancestors were misled and you have been scammed. You were swindled out of your inheritance, like Esau, for a bowl of porridge. The "Middle Class" should never really exist within America. If everyone were Middle Class, then, by definition we would not be Middle Class, we would be something else.
