Is classism the new racism?

Character is not “class.”

Money makes you part of the top 1% of the tax payers. Money lets you into “the rich.” Money determines your social status.

Emeraldkity4, are you saying that a minority who earns $10,000 a year but is very polite and mannerly is a member of the upper class? The lady who serves me at McDonalds is “very cordial and friendly.” Lets even call her “amiable and gregarious.” Does that make her upper class? I’d think not.
