america is a classless society because even the upper class is still powerless in the face of the corporatocracy

Genuinely a "what reading no theory does to someone" bit.

You contradict yourself by saying "classless" and then "upper class." Additionally, the "corporatocracy" is just Capitalism functioning.

If you want to get started with theory, I keep an introductory Marxist-Leninist reading list you can check out if you want.
