What new class was created under Stalin in the USSR?

The exiled Leon Trotsky never ceased his writings on the new Stalinist Soviet Union. As late as 1939, Trotsky remained a thorn in Stalin's "foot". In fact the German-Soviet Non-Aggression Pact signed in the Summer of 1939 outraged Trotsky. With that said, Trotsky continued to expose the internal problems of the Soviet Union under Stalin's regime. Trotsky pointed out that a new loyalist Stalinist bureaucratic "class" was a class of exploitation against the Soviet people. Trotsky believed that such a class was never intended to exist after the Bolsheviks consolidated their power in the USSR. He contended that for all practical purposes, the new bureaucracy was an extension of the old Romanov one. The role of the Soviets was to remove this obstacle to socialist progress. Instead, Trotsky wrote, the bureaucracy was now a tool of Stalin to exploit the working peoples of the USSR. This situation impeded all efforts to create a socialist economy within the nation.
