Class struggles

"Every class struggle is a political struggle." (pg 166)
This brief excerpt by Marx is what I believe to be the most important quote of the section. It defines how Marx sees the class struggle between the Proletariat and the Bourgeoisie. According to Marx, the struggle between these two groups boils down to the issues within politics such the loss of jobs and businesses to the monopolies of big business. This political struggle to rid the nation of big business is the root of the class struggle that arose.
