Answer to Question 1

The first division is the industrial working class of blue-collar workers in large manufacturing industries who are members of industrial unions. The second division is composed of workers employed in skilled crafts such as construction.

The term equality of opportunity refers to equality of access or opportunity to achieve desired levels of material well-being and prestige. Equality of result refers to equality in the actual outcomes of people's attempts to improve their material well-being and prestige, without regard to social class, gender, race, etc.
