It's all French anyway. I prefer to avoid using the academic terms when possible in first place, but there really isn't a replacement I can use in English
Little snobs? Shit head minority? Something like that comes to mind
Bourgeois = owning class
Proletariat = working class
If you get income from owning (stocks [dividends, capital gains], landlords [rent]) = owning class
If you get income from working (hourly wage, salary) = working class
I think that should work. What do you think?
I mean, it generally defines the interaction between classes, but there isn't really a simple term for petit bourgeois. They are technically members of the capitalist class, but if they analyzed their place in the class dynamic they would realize that their interests lay with the working class. They don't fit nicely in either square, so I tend to struggle with finding a term for them
I just say they have two parts to them. The working part and the owning part.
The working part works on the business and without it the business does not survive.
However the owning part is the part expecting an roi.
The goal of the small business owner is to separate the working and owning parts of themselves.
This fully happens when they hire employees, enough of them for themnot to work.
Then the small business owner is just an owner and their employees are the working class.
