Working-class American men are getting lonelier and sicker and their lives are shortening. It’s not just a sad state of affairs. It’s a full-blown crisis that demands policy solutions.

    You’re all working class!!! If you rely on your work for your living, you’re working class. I get what they mean, but don’t forget that.

      The article addresses the fact that it’s a bad definition, but since it is discussing a study they have to work with the definition the study used.

        if you’re only 2 pay cheques away from homelessness in the c suite I can perform some very cost effective consultancy work for you.

          I’m totally working class but I’ve got a year of float saved up or… Like fifteen days of cancer, so hoping those cells reproduce correctly!

            After all there’s more than one way to increase your maximum unemployment time… you make more, lower your living expenses, turn to highway robbery…

          Owning a taco truck makes you a CEO it doesn’t make you a millionaire.
