And just how do you locate the mysterious line separating working class from lower middle class? Don't the latter have to sell themselves every week to live? And if so, are they not as working class as anyone?

The category of "middle class" is perhaps the strongest ideological weapon in the hands of the ruling class. It does more harm to the working class than does ruling-class domination of the statef.

Max Weber remains the great pillar of capitalist rule.
