Class Struggles.....

It is found to be very interesting especially during this time in the world, that people struggle more so to be in the same class as people even though they do not have the same sort of income. The fact that so long as your in the same class as someone wealthy or not should not be the issue that matters; it should be your income! This is stated other wise in the article "Scenes from the class struggle on Fox". This article talks about not only America's obsession with the whole concept of wealthy prince charming comes to sweep the middle class princess off her feet because she loves the prince for who he is; but of the fact that the concept between this and reality is so far off. The "Joe Millionaire's" out there and the shows that are on support the false advertisement of gaining a certain class by watching it on television. People now think after watching shows like this that their "princes" need to be won over not by love, but by competing in games and winning...making the winner the "true love". In reading this, there is a strong agreement that this article is completely true and that it was well supported. There could not be a greater example than this; since this is how television makes many people perceive things differently in the world from how they really are. What happens when these poor people expect this one response, but get another...one not shown on television.
