    Well yeah. You do realize there are many, many levels of wealth right?

    Orwell explains it well in 1984. The upper class only comes down when the middle and the lower team up.

    If you’re upper class and want to prevent a revolution that takes you off the top level of society, the way to do that is to sew division between the lower and middle classes.

    In a typical landlord/renter scenario, the landlord is middle class and the renter is low class.

    That person is like an inch above you, and there are other people who are miles above that.
