I think my parent's would have considered themselves upper middle class. My grandparents were decidedly working class. I am the most educated out of all of them and have worked some prestigious jobs, but none of them have ever paid enough that I didn't need to work at least a second job or third job to cover my rent and food. They worked 40 hrs a week and lived comfortably. I worked 60-80 a week and barely made ends meet. Then I became disabled and I now seemingly don't deserve to exist given the current class system would rather I die than offer any support. So decidedly lower class.

@RobotDiver@starlite.rodeo That's crap. Previously I would've immediately presumed that you're in the US, but these days the government's attitude to disabled people in my country, Britain, isn't that much better, sadly.

I'm Canadian. It took over 4 years to even get acknowledged as having a disability in spite of having one for over 14 years.

@RobotDiver@starlite.rodeo Those of us outside Canada often think of it as some sort of utopia. I guess no where is perfect.
