+# 1.5.8 Classes
+Last Updated: December 20, 2024 - <span style="color: red;">Draft</span>
+
+## 1.5.8.1 Recognition of Classes
+By their thinking, the population self-selects into four primary classes: labourers, traders, thinkers, and knowers[^1].
+
+## 1.5.8.2 Labourers
+Those who `Act` as slaves, as hired labour, or who pool their labour with others to accomplish larger communal goals[^2].
+
+!!! info The Working Class
+    Labourers are more commonly known as "The Working Class".  Owners of small mom & pop shops are also considered labourers.
+
+## 1.5.8.3 Traders
+Those who `Act` by trading[^3].
+
+!!! info The Things Traders Trade
+    Traders trade products, currencies, metals, animals, slaves, businesses, etc.  They profit primarily through the arbitrage of others' work.  Some examples of traders include business owners, large landlords, politicians, lawyers, and some doctors[^3].
+
+## 1.5.8.4 Thinkers
+Those whose profession supplies information and services to labourers and traders[^4].
+
+!!! info Examples
+    Some examples of thinkers include priests, teachers, healers, warriors, builders, or navigators[^4]. 
+
+## 1.5.8.5 Knowers
+Knowers remember `Sense-Knowledge` of `Nature` and `Self-Knowledge` of their `Triune Self` through incarnation[^5].  They will apply this knowledge in more useful ways than the mere practicality of thinkers.
+
+!!! info Knower Professions
+    Knowers do not have any specific professions of their own, but can serve in any of the other professions.
