You already believe in a least two classes: Evil collectivists and freedom-loving libertarians. Maybe three, I forgot the useful idiots.
These aren't "classes." These are sets of ideas. You might have noted that collectivists and libertarians come from all walks of life, all races, all income levels, all creeds, and all nations.
The idea of a "class," as used in almost every discussion of it, implies something relatively fixed, and in many cases something one is born into and remains in. Mobility is considered difficult or impossible unless driven by an external political force, most often the people selling you the idea of "class" in the first place.
You're diluting the concept to the point where it has no meaning.
