Opis społeczeństwa w Chinach z książki o nieco satyrycznym zabarwieniu:
The biggest class by far is the working class, who do the work that keeps the country going. The officials may maltreat them from time to time, but the middle class are fairly polite in their dealings with the workers, being careful not to bite the hands that feed them (and line their pockets). Even so, there is a definite unease at the seemingly intractable size of the underclass and its constant grumbling.
Brakuje mi zgrabnego określenia, czy mogę prosić o pomoc?
