Well I asked about the since you said that a 40 hour work week isn't going to pull you out of poverty. But while in college I didn't think you could get much more then 40 hours and still do all the work required.. that was all I was wondering there.
hmm.. I wonder. our teacher gave a couple examples here... mainly that while some people percieve you as going up in one lifetime you actually remain in the same "class". Such as the so called working class which my soc. book says is 18000-35000(or somewhere around there.. I know 35k is right.. but the lower amount might be as large as 20k) dollars a year.. which is ranged from dirt poor to living comfortable. So I am just wondering if the definition is why it is taught that social mobility is low.
P.S. the dirt poor comment was that in our area you have to make at least 20000 dollars a year.. and that isn't including a whole lot, though they did put up a couple expenses that I found laughable. so you could probably make it but you would be dirt poor.
