Nice one Paxboy but what Marx actually said was:
Quote:
It will be the workers, with their courage, resolution and self-sacrifice, who will be chiefly responsible for achieving victory. The petty bourgeoisie will hesitate as long as possible and remain fearful, irresolute and inactive..... ... the rule of the bourgeois democrats, from the very first, will carry within it the seeds of its own destruction, and its subsequent displacement by the proletariat will be made considerably easier...
Nice one PM, BUT I would counter that - the CC are now the new petty bourgeoisie. After all, they have BMWs and the rest of the things that Marx did not envisage 'the workers' having!! They are remaining fearful about accepting change?
