[Brian]

I resent the stereotypes made about the working class. If you spent more time with those lower than you (as you seem to see them), you’d find that many blue-collar workers are fully able to converse about subjects other than fast cars and beer, and that most of them have a better grasp on the reality of daily life than you educated folk do. As a temp worker, I am consistently amazed at how little the “educated,” upper class, white collar people I work with know about anything other than how to keep their picket fences white and their lawns perfectly green. These are people who make more a year than I do in five, yet wouldn’t know the difference between Bukowski and Berkowitz and believe that Turkey is nothing more than something you have on Thanksgiving. I refuse to limit myself to one class when I make decisions about who to spend time with. You can learn so much just by expanding your horizons just a little bit.

As far as money is concerned, if that is your criteria in choosing another person, then I feel sorry for you. There is so much more to life than overpriced theater tickets, expensive restaurants and trips to the South of France.
