Classism / Social Ranking

Classism is different and unfair treatment based on social class. Often, people who make up the lower classes are seen as poorly educated and then looked at differently because of their rank. A recent poll by Equalities in Health Organization showed that poor people in particular think that class, not ability, greatly affects the way they are seen. Wealth and social class should not determine or affect the way someone is seen and is not a representation of someone's abilities. If no social classes existed, everyone would be accepted for their qualities and who they are and not where they are on the social ranking.
