He could sell all his assets, purchase a middle class house in cash, and probably retire and have absolutely nothing to do if he wanted to and be set for life
This guy can go fuck himself

There’s a strata of workers in the imperial core that are elevated above other workers by the distribution of superprofits. A white collar supervisor isn’t bourgeois, but they aren’t proletarian either. Hence, middle class.
That white collar supervisor is part of the proletarian. They are selling their labor to make a living.
You’re right about stratification of society based on income when it comes to us proles though. Some of us have nicer toys and living places but we still need to work to survive unlike the bourgeois that make their money by capital investment (ie: they make more money with the money they have and don’t actually need to labor).
That supervisor has a distinct relationship with the means of production compared with other workers. His job (you’ll notice this strata of workers are almost always white men) is to extract the surplus value from other actual workers, and because of this he is actually being paid the full value of his labor. This makes his class position distinct from other workers.
That’s why you don’t tell the supervisor about the union until it’s too late for him to stop you.
Yeah I hear you I’m just saying those dudes are part of the proles and you need necessary to buy in from them in an organization for anything to really change.
The petite bourgeoisie is/was real. Not sure if it’s the same thing as what people refer to as “middle class,” but it is a separate “class” of people who’s interests mostly lie with the proletariat, yet their small business or whatever makes them believe and act as though they’re part of the owner class.
