The middle class is the designation for the part of the population the owning class has duped into thinking they are temporarily embarrassed millionaires.

Your contempt for the middle class shines through even when you're ostensibly defending them. "Temporarily embarrassed millionaires"? Just call them duped rubes or idiots and save some typing.

You missed the point. There is no “middle class.” There is the proletariat and bourgeoisie.

I’m not sure if you’ve seen housing prices lately but most of the middle class are technically millionaires now, just of the “land rich, cash poor” variety.
