    What I was meaning to say is that people who are working class think that they are middle class because they aren’t destitute, yet they have no significant assets, and could not survive an extreme financial event.

    I just feel that politicians use middle class as a weapon where when they talk about policies benefitting the middle class they often benefit people far richer than the median but people think they mean them.

      Yup. Most people think they’re middle class. Not many actually are
