I love how I always end up arguing against abortion as if I'm a hardcore prolife christian, but I do support 1st trimester abortions and all the usual fringe exceptions like rape\incest.
Also I think it's important to remember just because a lower middle and upper class exist, doesn't mean that there's no mobility between them. I mean sure, some people get stuck in a cycle and need help, but *lots* of people start out poor and end up middle class or rich in america. I think that will always be the case, but certainly instances of corruption or discrimination keeping anyone in a state of poverty should be addressed. Class stratification is just a natural byproduct of a meritocracy (with safety nets), which is kind of the best system we've got despite the flaws.
