"Your Honor, years ago I recognized my kinship with all living beings, and I made up my mind that I was not one bit better than the meanest on earth. I said then, and I say now, that while there is a lower class, I am in it, and while there is a criminal element I am of it, and while there is a soul in prison, I am not free." What social class does Eugene Debs sympathize with?
A.the middle class
B.prisoners
C. the working class
D. the upper class
The working class is the lowest class "While there is a lower class i am in it". And the fact that he was a devout socialist leads me to believe the working class.
