    Social classes are defined by property, power, and prestige which separate people into different lifestyles with varying opportunities and chances. An article discusses a study finding those in lower social classes are less healthy, with stress from discrimination being a major cause of health issues. The political climate does not appear poised to improve class-based discrimination or the health impacts felt by lower classes anytime soon.

    SS205: Sociology, Week 03 Assignment

    Social Classes in the textbook are defined as a large group of people who rank closely to one another in property, power and prestige. The textbook also states that these elements separate people into different lifestyle, that provide different chances and opportunities as well as providing them with ways to look at themselves and the world.

    The article I chose discussed a study that basically states the the lower class they are the less healthy they are with a good majority of the issues caused by the stress of discrimination. I was not surprised by the results provided in the article, the world is very class based with possessions and status being things you are judged upon. Unfortunately, the political climate does seem to being going down a road that will improve the classes anytime soon.
