Where the hell is the lefts Margaret Thatcher [View all]

Look, I despise everything that witch stood for, and when combined with St. Ronnie, you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who is more responsible for tearing the world's economy apart, and shifting more and more of the wealth to the 1%.

But, she was an unapologetic ideologue.

It simply floors me. Imagine the outcry had military force be used to extract ill-gotten wealth from the Romney crowd, or armed police dispatched to "break" the stranglehold the 1% have on this country and the world. But...we sit back and accept when armed government thugs are used to break the backs of middle-class workers, who are either fighting to hold onto their hard won gains, or ensure they can just "effing" live.

Where the "eff" is our Thatcher? Where the "eff" is someone to say, "fuck you 1%-ters"? Where are the Wall Street Barons rioting in the streets and fighting with armed police, because someone finally stood up and said that THEY, and NOT the UNIONS are the one's that need to be busted?

I guess Dylan was right; "Steal a little and they throw you in jail, steal a lot and they make you king".

Fuck the rewritten history of that fucking hag. In a just world, the Romney's of the world would be the ones cowering in front of marching police officers, not the fucking miners!
