Calling himself "lower middle class" is a joke. How many middle class send their kids to a private school?

[Jtsummers]

A decent number. But most middle class folks (or those outside upper middle class at least) don't send multiple kids to $44,000/student/year schools, let alone one kid.

In some cities sending children to private school is a very middle class thing to do. It depends on the local public school system.
