What the heck is an "elite class?" Where did Marx talk about it?

Believe it or not, things can exist independently of Marx having described them.

When everyone is using Class in a specific manner, the addition of a "class" that doesn't actually exist just for a quip is really odd. You have to make the argument that it even exists in the first place first.

So which non-Marxist political economy or sociology defines this elite class? Usually class politics is attributed to Marx
