Class was a difficult one.  I put 'upper middle class'.  People who came from farming backgrounds, touched the working class briefly, got their hands dirty often, but dealt only in capital returns/profits as their income source rather than wage/salary-labor.. its an odd class.  Petite Bourgeoisie I guess.

One thing's for sure, there was never any lack of money.

taking your views on gays and immigrants, etc into account, you're far right relative to anything.

Unless Zuwo wants to shoot gays or something, I really doubt that's the case.

Went with Middle Class, was kind of trying to figure out if it would be more appropriate to go with Middle Class or Lower Middle Class here. I tend to define social class in terms of level of education of your parents (as I'm yet to finish college), and I've got one parent who went to college and one that didn't. I guess Middle Class would be the best descriptor, but I'm from a blue collar background generally. Mom was the first person on her side of the family to get a college degree, AFAIK. I'll be the fist person with my dad's last name to do so.

Supporting minaret bans and opposing gay adoption aren't the positions of someone on the far right? I know it's central Europe, but... really?

Honestly, it's not far-right positions in Europa. It's just the typical right in Suisse, not far-right. After all, 58% approved the ban...

You know what he meant even if you happen to find the words he used mildly insulting, but I understand recreational outrage is hard to not post about.

[tpfkaw]

"Underclass" is a term that is frequently used by Marxists, and generally in a more pejorative sense than my intention is here.  I am using the commonly accepted politically neutral terms for social class otherwise (besides "super-rich," for lack of a better term).  If I were going to use the Marxist term "working class," which is insulting to everyone else I might as well go all Randian and refer to the "producing class."

What, you mean the lazy, unproductive rich?
