How can you be middle class if there is no one poor under you. If the poor are made equal to the people that "made the right choices, went to college, and got a cubical" then what was the point of doing that?
The concept that all people deserve adequate housing, food and clothing is in conflict with people's self-evaluation because it requires the poor be paid a living wage.
People will argue against their own best interest as long as it makes them feel better than someone else.
