As for the class thing, surely you do have elements of that. Otherwise you wouldn't have the term 'trailer trash'. I will concede though that it doesn't seem to be as much of a popular concern.
I don't think T. was suggesting that class isn't an issue in the US. Class is a mostly-ignored issue in the US. It's all tied up with racism, because the wealthy and middle-class are disproportionately white.
