And yet the engineers and other PMCs who are definitely in the top 10% by income still conceive of themselves as part of an oppressed underclass with no influence on policy direction.

Perhaps it would be more accurate to say those who are in the top 10% by income/wealth in their state of residence.

The opinions of the top 10% of income earners correlates highly with the direction of US policy whereas the bottom 90% have very small influence. https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/perspectives-on-poli...
