People your age aren't actually the middle class. They are either the dependents of middle-class families, or they are earning their own way entirely in which case they are making a relatively low income.

To which you say, "Ah, but they are educated, and can be reliably predicted to be middle class in another 10-15 years."

To which I say, sure, but once you give them 10-15 years, a mortgage and a couple of kids, you may find they aren't as liberal as they were in their college years.
