"What is working class in America?
We have denied that there was such a thing up until very very recent times.
But the fact of the matter is;
If the man tells you
when to go to work,
when you'll get your break,
when you'll get your lunch,
how much you will get paid,
whether or not you will have benefits,
& when to take a walk when he doesn't need you, I'd say that's working class & about 70% of Americans fall into that.
It doesn't matter if you're wearing a technicians coat or whatever."
