From the Paper:

"Social classes are determined based on the differences of people. A class of a society is different from the other class. In that, the lower class group has lesser opportunities than the higher social class. This groupings or identification of social class is somehow unfair to how the past and the present generation uses it. Although now grouping individuals into social class is diminishing, the meaning and characteristics of each class still remains based on peoples' standing in society, either they belong to the rich class, the poor class, or the middle class of people. Social classes can be determined on several factors such as condition of living, labor and employment, ideological perceptions, political influences, and religious influences."
