Not really, you've laid it out there pretty well. The problem is the US has tried so hard to pretend there is no class that it is taboo to talk about it. So rather than there being productive discussion around class based issues it's ignored, or transferred on to talking about race (many of the racial issues in the US are actually class issues).
