    I think one’s class is tied into both income and the type of work they do. As a graduate student living on a very meager fellowship, I make the same as a full-time fast-food employee, and yet I wouldn’t say we were in the same class. The difference between us hinges on the fact that our type of labor is different: mine is more cerebral and independent, and my responsibilities are greater than the fast-food worker’s. But our disposable income is the same, so I guess, technically, we’re in the same class. Where I live, I would consider a single person living on $15,000 or less low income.
