I get you, but "middle class" in America harkens to a time when a salaried position provided its own safety net (affordable university degrees, affordable housing and healthcare, and an income that not only covers it all, but also enough to pay for retirement with added wealth to leave the next generation)

I may be wrong, but "working class" in America implies a non-salaried job without many benefits.
