Class will always exist but it's been proven that a strong middle class is a sign of a bountiful economy that actually works for it's workers.
The shrink of the American middle class is exactly what's caused most of the economic issues in America.

Democracy has existed since ancient Greece and Rome
Kings are still necessary in the sense that we need someone in charge
