The growth of the modern state brought with it the development of mass political parties and the emergence of professional politicians. A man whose occupation is the strugglefor political power may go about it in two ways. First, a person who relies on their political activities to supply their main source of income is said to Live off politics, while a person who engages in full-time political activities, but who doesn't receive an income from it, is said to live for politics. Now, a political system in which recruitment to positions of power is filled by those who live for politics is necessarily drawn from a property-owning elite, who are not usually entrepreneurs. However, this is not to imply that such politicians will necessarily pursue policies which are wholly biased towards the interests of the class they originate from.
