Concerning Einde's criticism of my posting:

Dáil deputies can hardly be described as capitalists by virtue of their Dáil 
incomes. An annual income of 100,000 euro does not necessarily define the 
person receiving such an income as a capitalist. Such a person would probably 
count as middle class. Recall that tax is deducted from this income. Even if a 
plain factory worker earned 100,000 euro s/he is still a worker by virtue of 
selling her/his labour power.

As for Marx he was not infallible.

Take Care
