That's the point. Values, customs, beliefs, ideals, institutions, etc. are all derived from the economic construct. Your place in the economic system dictates your ideas and beliefs, if you take stock in economic determinism. It also highlights the perceived struggle between the rich and poor in Marxism.
But it doesn't. You have people with wildly different beliefs throughout the political spectrum. Can you give a specific example of how people of a particular economic class hold the same beliefs? How about the middle class?
