Until money is removed from the election process, class is important and can not be ignored.
Money is power. 100 people have the majority of the money. You can’t get elected without lots and lots of money from at least a few people with their own agenda. Establishment Democrats and Republicans both are part of the problem.
Look at productivity vs wages trends starting in the Reagan years. Look at how much more wealthy the extremely wealthy have become over the last decade, and how much your own wealth has followed that growth.

There is no middle ground where you assume that people have rhe ability to think and make rational decisions, except for the times when theybmake bad decisions, but in that case its not their fault.
