I realize I may get some flack for this, but here goes.

19. My apologies. There was a typo in my OP.

I wrote my OP to respond what I heard AOC say that referenced "working class". I then went and got a quote from someone else's share that mistakenly used the phrase "middle class" in quoting her. She did indeed say "working class". I have since clarified. Here is my update/correction for my OP.
** I had to make an edit and correct the word "middle class". It was supposed to read "working class". I copied and pasted it from somewhere and didn't realize they had changed the quote. BIG MEA CULPA!
For clarification, my criticism was of the phrase "working class" and its limited meaning. That was indeed the phrase she used. I just found the article in which the phrase was used. Here it is. https://www.commondreams.org/news/aoc-democrat

Again, my apologies for the gaff in my OP.
