      To quote from her actions: I am going to use the income from North Sea Oil to destroy the manufacturing industries of Britain and when I become the most unpopular Prime Minister ever I'll have a little South Atlantic election campaign and kill a couple of thousand young men.

          Not someone that I could ever listen to.
          By the way, as a result of her policies more Britons ended up on the dole that at any other time in history. Her form of capitalism just led to the extension of the welfare state.

            Then it wasn't capitalism. I really don't know that much about her but it sounds like she ruined you guys.

      When uninsured go to the emergency room they aren't spending their own money. Not saying I support the plan, but facts are facts and do get in the way of agendas.
