I’m sure she was. She was also a significant factor in permanently weakening trade unions, sending homelessness rates on the rise, and prolonging the Troubles on false pretenses.

1. The trade unions had stopped serving their members and became political tools to remove governments. Homelessness was barely a problem under Thatcher, but if you import 8million plus people and don't build homes for them housing will be a problem.

I’m all for union reform, but a bad union is better than no union. Collective bargaining is necessary for workers. And like all developed countries, the UK has far more open housing than it does homeless people. It just restricts access for the sake of profit.

If the NUM - UK miners union - had not several times tried to overthrow governments it's members would still have an industry. You can't pay people anything close to the economic benefit they provide to a company. The first recession/accident will bankrupt the company.

“You can't pay people anything close to the economic benefit they provide to a company. ” Why not? How is anything less not considered theft? “The first recession/accident will bankrupt the company.” How?

In short, if their is no direct financial benefit to me as a business owner, why would I employ anyone? If I wanted to work in the charity sector, why am I running a small business? Also, running a business is risky. How many great businesses died because of the financial crisis?

You shouldn’t. The operation of a business should not be the responsibility of some owner. And charities are not businesses. (At least in theory) Speaking of which, you know what systems caused the financial crisis, right?

Why shouldn't it be the responsibility of the owner. If you come up with a great business idea, sacrifice your time and money to build that business, why shouldn't you benefit from it? If you study for s degree, should I be able to just take it from you and say it is mine?

There’s no reason for there to BE an owner. If you sacrifice your time and resources, that’s work, and you should be compensated for your work, but that’d just be the work of a “director,” if you insist on a leadership role.

Replying to @mediocre_danny @simon_enefer and
There’s no reason your compensation involves control over everybody who’s “realizing your vision.” The degree analogy doesn’t make sense, bc I’m not suggesting taking anything people legitimately worked for, and the work of getting a degree actually changes a person.

Ethiopia! No property rights in a Marxist state. If your farm can be taken from you at anytime, why work to improve the farm? It isn't rationale to do that. Ethiopia is not a victim of colonialism, except for a few years under Italian control it had always bern ruled by Africans!

“Marxist” states recognize personal property, just not private property. If you work your own farm, it’s personal.
