The Plebs were those Roman citizens who were not Patricians. The Patricians were a small minority of the oldest and best families. This meant that the Plebeians covered all the areas of employment. They were consuls, praetors, provincial governors, senators, landowners, merchants, farmers, artisans, tax collectors, soldiers, sailors, labourers, lawyers, philosophers, poets, playwrights, you name it, they did it - 'rich man, poor man, beggarman, thief' as the rhyme used to say. Think of Pompey the Great and Cicero. The lowest class were the Proles. The proletarians were those of the Plebs without any property. Prole means 'breeder' - the wry implication being that all the proles gave to the state was children.
