Class discrimination

Class discrimination is when people are treated differently because of their social or economic class. For example, a rich person might get better treatment than a poor person in a store, or a poor person might not be able to go to the same school as a rich person because the rich person's school costs too much money. Class discrimination can also take the form of bias in hiring, where someone from a lower class might not get a job, even if they are qualified, just because of their background.
