Mac was working class on some levels. But then it got revealed that she was actually an 09'er baby who was switched at birth and that her working class family got a huge settlement out of it, but elected to keep the child they'd raised.
And there was a bit of play in how the girl Mac hated the most in HS, was the girl who'd been switched with her. A girl who wasn't interested in books and knowledge the way her parents were or her little sister was (with whom Mac bonded instantly).
Once the secret was out, not only about how it was Mac's parents could have money for her to have a laptop, high speed internet and to take family vacations easily enough - there was never a mention referenced again as far as I know (I only watched up to S2. S3 was just too full of wtf) of her working class roots -except- maybe for the part where in because she wasn't 'fake' her insane 09'er bf couldn't bring himself to quite go insane on her.
