    I worry that she actually is “middle class” and the wealth disparity has moved to the point that those of us who cannot spend $150 on pet insurance or drop $750,000+ on a house or $100,000 on a truck are effectively “poor”, at least as far as the market is concerned.

      There’s people with “Fuck you” money and people without “Fuck you” money.

      I mean, it should be median income/wealth, then a standard deviation either way.

      But capitalism doesn’t care about people, it cares about money. That’s the only way the “middle class” can be defined differently.

      Don’t let capitalism define words.

        And neither communism nor socialism care about people either, they are just ideas with the inability to care about anything.
