[Augustine23403]

I think there is a correlation, and it breaks down by gender as well. I have noticed that women from lower socio-economic classes tend to be quite articulate, whereas the men are not. It is almost as though talent with words is seen as a feminine trait in the lower classes. The more well-to-do classes are all over the place when it comes to effective use of words. There is the stereotypical ‘inarticulate WASP’, but I have found it more to be that wealthy people expect others to invest their words with great importance, whether in fact they are saying something important and intelligent or not. Also, some people who are ‘just educated enough’ (e.g., two years of college) use words like a sledgehammer, as though they will pound you into submission to their views with a superficially erudite discourse on this or that. Scratch the surface and what they are saying is often nonsense. Speaking nonsense, of course, is not the sole province of any socio-economic group.
