i think the point of this "classless" society is not that there aren't inequalities and stratification, but that having broken the mold of industrial societies people don't fit the old molds.

it used to be that working class you worked in a factory, middle class you were the management, and upper class you were the owner. nowadays? there are the mega-rich, the ultra-poor, and the mess in between. where does one belong is difficult to know.

i for example make less money than a skilled factory worker would, so does that make me working class or underclass? then again, i was raised middle class and probably behave like one. that would be 3rd-world middle class, which is different.

then there's the issue that in countries like the u.s. your social class doesn't depend on your upbringing but on your current salary, which can vary from year to year. it's a very complex porridge. so by "classless" what it's meant is that there are no class "blocks". a woking class person attends night classes and suddenly lands on the middle class. then you have rednecks with money. what are they?

economic classes we definitely have, social ones, it's a bit trickier-- especially in america i think.
