class up to a certain amount the low end of the middle class spectrum.
Below the working class would put you in lower class. Of course, these
averages vary depending on what source you reference.
The lower class, is the social class described as the low income class.
They are those who work low paying or minimum wage jobs and have very
little economic security. The lower class is often separated into subgroups of
those who are either employed but lacking financial security or those who
are long-term unemployed and/or homeless and especially those who are
receiving welfare or state assistance. Typically people whom fall into the
lower class are also described as people who cannot support themselves
solely off of their income.
To summarize, Along with the division of political views, racial
prejudice and gender inequalities, I believe that division of the classes is just
another way to separate us as people into little boxes that assist us in
forming an opinion of the other without having to make it on our own first.
An immediate judgement is placed on people based off of what class they
fall in and in reality, we have little to no control over the classes we find
ourselves placed in. The placement of these classes will determine the
schools that will be available to us, the jobs that will be offered to us, who
one is allowed to marry and even the treatment of one from the court and
police.
