Dunno who said that. What I said was that I suspected that the TPers are small businesspeople and/or independent professionals of some sort - and not classical working class in the sense of being employees. So it's not a matter of income, really, but of one's relation to workplace authority and the means of production. They're certainly not part of the bourgeoisie.
