The proletariat were the ones who ran the country and the bourgeoisie were the ones merely raping it for all it was worth to them. All it needed was for someone to point this out.

From a student essay on Engels and the industrial revolution.


The classes of society fell into three main constitutes. The first being the head of everything (the country, the army, the church etc.) who was the Queen, an Empress who was prolific in parenthood and in enjoying her own life, but who fell in to a deep reclusive depression in the 1860s [… ] The second being those with money and power, the mill and factory owners, the parliamentarians, the aristocrats with inherited wealth; all the people who either through luck, birth or invention bought themselves to a place of austerity.

Would it cheer you up to hear she failed? Just this assignment, not the coursework as a whole. Though I feel the exam cannot go well...

The Working-Class were finally in the nineteenth century beginning to be seen as more than members of the lowest epsilon of society. (Yup. Same student.)

Blakes 7 thought they were scraping the social barrel when they got to delta grades.
