Lexington | Obamaworld versus Hillaryland | Economist.com

This Article says "Wine-track" Democrats support Obama and "Beer-track" Democrats support Clinton. Mr. Obama's supporters are young and liberal elite. Ms. Clinton's supporters are old and white working-class people. This battle is so bitter because it is a battle over culture.

I think Japan is not class society currently, though there is the rich and the poor. But if the gap between rich and poor is widened anymore and fixed, Japan would become class society someday. It's a possiblity but I hope not. Because the huge gap brings conflicts and feelings of hate.

In strictly-classified society, the lower class and the upper class aren't mixed absolutely, even don't meet each other. I feel something is wrong when I see such situation in other countries.
