#MyopicMaggie and privatise everything.

@pitchaya

It's a hard message to get across. In this respect, #Trump is the antithesis of what #MAGA want ... and yet they can't understand it.

I began ranting about this back in the days of #MyopicMaggie Thatcher. I used to say... 'Just wait ~30yrs and you'll see the mess that *unrestrained capitalism* produces.' Well, here we are. Just as predicted.

I started pointing this out back in the days of #MyopicMaggie . Unrestrained capitalism is doomed to failure. I think of it like this:

"If you let people do what they want, what will they do?"

Answer :
"They'll do what they want"

It is literally, as simple as that. The problem now is getting people to understand that 'legislation is a *good* thing' and also how to deal with global level international money-laundering.

The wonders of Myopic Maggie's myopia.

~35yrs ago, I used to say 'just wait 30 years and you'll see where this leads'. Most thought I was talking rubbish, but ... well here we are.

It's pretty shocking when you read it like this. How much corruption involved in all this?? The doors are always open.

If Scotland had gone independent in the 1960s/70s, it would have become one of the richest countries on earth, with a population of ~5m and the 5th largest oil fields in the world.

Instead of that, #MyopicMaggie managed to get conned (mostly) by the Americans and the money just got steadily creamed off, as per usual.

It was such a massive f*ckup.

Has anyone else done so much damage to the UK? It was obvious to me at the time and ... well... here we are.

Not a surprise to any of us who lived through the Thatcher years. #MyopicMaggie.
