Hi Jeff,
Well, I disagree with your characterization of the "regime" in the former SU was a
"ruling class". I tend to agree with Trotsky .
His position was that the bureaucracy was a caste siting on top of the gains of
October and thus the need for a politicalk revolution and not a new social revcolution
in order to smash it.
Warm Regards
