How the American class structure has evolved since the Country's founding.
What makes someone upper class.
Who falls into the lower class, middle class, upper class, and upper-upper class.
How easy or difficult it is to move up or down in socioeconomic class.
The importance of money, education, and family background in determining the socioeconomic class of Americans.
The socioeconomic class of JFK, Tiger Woods, George H.W. Bush, Elvis Presley, Mitt Romney, Bill Gates, and Jeffrey Epstein.
The unwritten dress code of the upper class.
The unwritten code of conduct of the upper class.
What a "moral compass" is and whether having one matters.
What the homes of the upper class are like and how they are decorated.
