'''Ruling class''' is a term to describe a social class that rules over another. The ruling class has historically been the rich and the educated.
[[Karl Marx]] brought the term ruling class into political thought by predicting that the under class would revolt against the ruling class ending in equality. This revolt, however, never came to pass due to a rise in living conditions for all social classes and technological advances in the western world.
