American classism

I thought the commentary on this article was interesting, mostly because the rather common "this doesn't apply to me, I earned it" posts don't mention whether they are sending their children to elite schools, or supporting their children in extracurriculars designed to help their children get into an elite school.  Which means that even though their achievements may not be an example of the problem, they aren't really addressing the issues the author brings up.

Coincidentally, I came across another article this morning that ties into this really well.
