The old test of membership in the American middle class was self employment (de Tocqueville used it), the new test is salaried employment, “Since 1870 the number of the self-employed in America has increased by only 135 per cent; the wage workers by 255 per cent; but the salaried employees have increased 1600 per cent, until they now form more than half of all the gainfully employed and four fifths of the wage receivers in the economy. America has become a salaried rather than a profit-making or wage-earning society.”—Max Lerner. America As a Civilization, New York, Simon , and Schuster , 1957, p. 489.
