Conditions of the working class


Thanks to the peculiar position of capitalism - vast colonial possessions and monopolist position in the world markets - the working class tend to be divided into a avoured minority of labour aristocrats and a much larger lower stratum.

The upper stratum becomes bourgeois, while at the same time a section of the proletariat allows itself to be led by people who are bought by the bourgeoisie, or at least are in their pay.
