The haves and the have-nots; some people have class, and some people just don't have class. What's not to understand?
The term "class warfare" does apply exclusively to wealth when referring to the context of politics. But it is the attempt to tax the poor and reduce their wages to punish the poor for being poor that we are talking about. The entire goal of conservative class warfare is to cut taxes and increase the free services for the rich while raising taxes and reducing services for everyone else.
Example: vouchers for private schools: Most of the people who use them can easily afford the private schools without the money vouchers pay out of taxpayer pockets. In most districts there is no evidence that private schools give a better education than public. By giving the money to private schools we are draining resources from public schools that service a wider array of needs. This is an example of taking from the tax payers and giving to others who don't need it by republicans.
You're right in saying some people have class and some don't. And class is not based on the amount of money you have.
But today, the term "class warfare" applies exclusively to wealth, and the misguided effort of some to artificially redistribute wealth from those who earned it to those who haven't earned it.
Keep hearing people talk about this.
