[Jessica]

The working class. People who dont make things but rather sell their labor in the workplace, when the means of production are owned by someone else. The most widely known example is the factory worker. The international proletariat make up about 50% of the world population at this point. See [word]bourgeois[word].

[Becky]

The name used to generally describe the working class or poor in society. In Communist-Lingo, meaning the class of society that doesnt own the means of production (Factories, mines etc.) but works for them, selling their laboring power in order to survive.

[Sarah]

Another word for working class. Often used in a derogatory sense for people who sell their ability to work, rather than a finished or half-product. The means of production which they use are owned by someone else, they work for a set wage rather than a profit. Proletariat (litt. those who only have their children) is usually associated with factory workers. Working under dismal circumstances. But in many non-industrialised countries, those working in a factory and referred to as proletariat regard this work as a huge step up from working on the farm, which in turn is a huge improvement over subsistence farming.
