America is a bit unique, it's made up nearly entirely of Labor Aristocracy, ie beneficiaries of Imperialism.

The Petite Bourgeoisie are Capital Owners that must labor, small business owners and the like. The lack of college education doesn't mean they won't be held back from becoming business owners, and the dominance among the religious and white is because of fascism's cultural characteristics, explained in the first chapter of Blackshirts and Reds.

Fascism can also be described as Imperialism turned inwards.

Interesting, thank you for the response. I'll give that book a read, and I appreciate the direct link!
