Unintentionally stumbled on the truth of capitalism; you need an underclass to run the whole engine
It's not needed.
It's just needed to provide fantastic profits to the owners.
You can definitely have capitalism that pays a living wage, it just cuts into billionaires' profits.
Hierarchies are a necessary component to keep the Capitalist murder-cult running. You cannot maintain global domination without class-based social hierarchies.
Ftfy. Abolishing class is a utopian pipe dream. A good society allows for class mobility and tilts the social scales to make life more tolerable for the lower classes.
Are you misunderstanding what the word "class" means?
Nope.
Given your other response, the answer is actually yes.
Uh huh
Yep, and I explained it.
