im finally understanding this better. the petite bourgeoisie have finally tasted the good life but its not fully under control. a small business can fail. but for the time being they can finally pay their bills without checking the bank account life is pretty good. but this is why they are so volatile. they have most likely been poor and reuse to go back. this is in contrast to the poorest who are stable in their hopelessness and the real deal bourgeoisie who have absolute stability.
but the petite bourgeoisie have tasted the champagne. this is what makes them volatile.
yea why wouldn't they fight to never go back to that desperate state

the beautiful boaters makes sense to me now
It’s less about going BACK, most of them come from generational wealth and it’s more a case of falling INTO the proletariat for the first time. The rise of the nazi party was literally borne out of the same anxiety in the German petit-boug after WWI.
I think it's both. Many of people started small businesses too.
