Class
Dan Prick tugs our coat and tells us: "I'm enormously middle class, and was once dragged along to a bingo club by a former girlfriend and her mum. It's incredible the fury you can whip up in a room of old biddies winning a fuckton of money and telling them 'This is a load of old shit, really'". Like Pulp's Common People, have you ever tried to act down, or act up?

Politics
So, as some of You know, I used to work on Wall Street. Made a great deal of money, but ended up returning my feet to the earth before I burned out.
So, now I am assisting a local candidate for Governor of my State...and he requested I attend a lunch last Thursday with him and some other folks.
I showed up and was sat at a table with SEVERAL multi-multi-multi-millionaires. I have never in my life felt quite THAT poor. Middle Class? Absolutely. But that day, I DEFINITELY felt as much a commoner as I have ever felt. It was the campaign finance committee...and now, I am a member. On the way home I picked up a six pack of Wifebeater and a couple of McDonalds gift certificates for myself. :)

Gah? America only has commoners.
The only upper class people in the US are on holiday from Europe.
