Wtf? Why am I benefiting most under Harris? Shouldn't that be the guys on the very bottom?

It was a struggle between the middle class and the upper class. The upper class, once again, tricked the lower class into supporting them. The middle class has lost, and now its power will be dismantled as much as possible. The lower class, as usual, will not benefit much from either scenario. This is why their vote was easy to sway. They really didn’t have a horse in the race, but now the gap widens. I hate typing this out and it makes me feel gross, but this is what’s happening.
Wherever each candidate’s darkest green category lies is where the concentration of power that keeps them supported resides.
