Since 1789, every U.S. President has belonged to the same privileged fraternity.

From your link:

Margaret Thatcher deserves the major share of credit for Britain's economic recovery. It is easy to forget how far the country had traveled down the socialist road--and how much damage this had caused to the British economy--before she came into office. Nationalized industries, socialized housing and medicine, burdensome government regulations, immensely powerful trade unions, irresponsible monetary policies, and enormous welfare state had brought economic progress to a virtual standstill. Layer by layer, she removed the obstacles to economic growth, despite strong opposition even within her own party. While President Reagan rightly receives great credit for slowing down the growth of government in the US, we should recognize that Margaret Thatcher's repeal of socialism in Britain represented a true revolution. We can only hope the Europe of 1992 will be modeled on Thatcher's Britain rather than on some of the bloated welfare states on the continent.

Thatcher's economic policy was influenced by monetarist thinking and economists such as Milton Friedman and Alan Walters.[84] Together with Chancellor of the Exchequer Geoffrey Howe, she lowered direct taxes on income and increased indirect taxes.[85] She increased interest rates to slow the growth of the money supply and thereby lower inflation,[84] introduced cash limits on public spending, and reduced expenditure on social services such as education and housing.[85] Her cuts in higher education spending resulted in her being the first Oxford-educated post-war Prime Minister not to be awarded an honorary doctorate by the University of Oxford, after a 738 to 319 vote of the governing assembly and a student petition.[86] Her new centrally funded City Technology Colleges did not enjoy much success, and the Funding Agency for Schools was set up to control expenditure by opening and closing schools; the Social Market Foundation, a centre-left think tank, described it as having "an extraordinary range of dictatorial powers".[87]

You seem to be saying that Hillary Clinton's and Margret Thatcher's political positions are the same. Do you think that's so?
