You forgot to point out what was so horribly wrong with my post
The so-called "socialists" that you're criticizing don't follow Marxist theory since when it comes under intense scrutiny is incredibly pseudo-scientific. It's like thinking that homeopathy is going to cure the stage 3 cancer in your body. No Marxist would like to admit it, but Marx just took what French Revolution-era thinkers were already espousing a century earlier, and twisted it slightly for his own. This had the unfortunate effect of making his theory alone incredibly popular, and had the indirect result of one bloody regime after another being forcefully installed (some of which parts of the world are still suffering from). Having said that, things like class struggle and income inequality do exist even when viewed from a non-Marxist perspective (which is a perspective that sane people take).
Margaret Thatcher
She is one of a long line of Tories that over centuries helped make the UK the shithole it is today when compared to its continental neighbors (though, I have to say, it's still quite a livable shithole when compared to the US, so it hasn't quite reached that low, yet).
