One place in the US where there's still lots of upward mobility.... |

The soaps! Where else can a young woman who does nails end up a multi-millionaire and a well-paid executive of a large corporation? Or a young man who started out as a pool boy for a wealthy family marry to boss's daughter and end up a multi-millionaire and a well-paid executive of a large corporation?
The rich people on the soaps, apparently don't mind marrying someone whose socioeconomic status is way below theirs.
