Thatcher famously said "the problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money", but isn't it the best way to describe billionaires in late stage capitalism?

    Thatcher, like any capitalist dickhead, is a liar and malignant.

          I vote that we create the Thatcher Urinary Fund to pay for the defense of people who go urinate on her grave.

          If a bunch of teens can speed run through Scientology buildings and Naruto run through area 51…

          What I’m trying to say is I think it’s a lack of motivation

          Like, actual human guards? Wow, right down there on the worst job ever list. As far as crimes go, tried to piss on Thatchers grave is something to frame for posterity. Gonna guess someone got away with it, hence the guards (maybe bribeable?) but thanks for the reality check.
