    The "middle class" is a near meaningless term in the US because it means anybody making from (very roughly) - I dunno - ~$20,000 to $100,000+ a year. Libs rarely if ever think of themselves as part of the working class unless it's convenient - like now and they can say "we're all in this together" when they know that's a lie.

    Biden himself said being middle class is a feeling.

      Do we need a new occupy wall street? I think one useful thing that came about at that time was the idea of the '99%', recognizing that the ultra-wealthy hold such an absurd proportion of capital that distinctions like middle class were useless. It brought to the forefront of public sentiment at the time essentially a reworded concept of bourgeoisie vs proletariat.
