Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The social class system in the U.S. may put people with the same income level in different social classes. This is because social class is based on factors such as education, occupation, and family background, not just income. Therefore, two people with the same income may be perceived differently based on these other factors. The other answer choices are incorrect.
