V.2

In every city the people are divided into three sorts; the very rich, the very poor and those who are between them. . The most perfect political community must be amongst those who are in the middle rank, and those states are best instituted wherein these are a large and more respectable part, if possible, than both the other; or, if that cannot be, at least than either of them separate; so that being thrown into the balance it may prevent either scale from preponderating.
