    I guess it depends how on one classes “self-employed” - still wouldn’t be the majority but it could be potentially 15% of the population.

    The better heuristic is to consider the revolutionary potential; how much value is given to private property and how much one benefits from the fall of the US empire. It cuts like a knife through warm butter and better illuminates which parts of the labour aristocrats, proleteriat in the west and the petite borugoisie to target.

      Haha fair. Never seen someone use “petty” over “small”
