Never Merely Consumer

Ludwig von Mises:
"Living and acting man by necessity combines various functions. He is never merely a consumer. He is in addition either an entrepreneur, landowner, capitalist, or worker, or a person supported by the intake earned by such people." [Human Action p. 253]
Hmm, where does the politician fit? Or, has Mises neglected to include politician in his list of various functions?
