Moral lines should never be drawn along class lines. This is a sacred value for me.

Quick Note

The more I think about it, the more it becomes clear: One thing that makes me truly angry is this pervasive but false belief in society (atleast within my socioeconomic class) that the upper class is bad, and our class is good, and hence the upper class as a whole deserves less, morally speaking, than people of our own upper-middle / middle class
Politicians and billionaires as a whole, should never be the outgroup for any initiative I work on. Period.
Some specific politicians and billionaires can be the outgroup, sure. But the entire upper class as a whole should never be the outgroup.
P.S. If you pick a randomly selected person of my class and a randomly selected person of the upper class, there is a higher probability I respect the person of the upper class. Atleast they are serious about something, whereas people of my class are more often not serious about anything.
