DRIVE through almost any neighborhood around the country, and class divisions are as clear as the gate around one community or the grittiness of another. From the footprint of the house to the gleam on the car in the driveway, it is not hard to guess the economic status of the people who live there.

Its kinda funny really. The left talks about class divisions but they really don't exist out here in most of flyover country. I've got 3 neighbors (with a lake on one side) but I'm the only 1 who doesn't own multiple homes. I'm the poor boy in the neighborhood but the neighbors trust me and we all leave our homes unlocked.

In my 'hood, the ones with the cars that have gleam are on public assistance. Those of us working are driving around in beaters.
