You confuse government "programs" with the freedom to trade. No surprise there. Britian went to it's deathbed because of socialism and protectionism. Thatcher changed that by cutting taxes, spending and embracing free trade just like Reagan.

You believe that more freedom = socialism? You are one of the most confused consumers I've ever seen. Entertaining, but very confused.

You haven’t read your history. Britain went to socialism to placate the labor class after they “free traded” away too much domestic employment.

So Britain is soo much less socialist now decades after Thatcher’s “free trade” agenda with the EU was implemented? Ha ha ha.

We have more socialism now than ever after 30 years of “free trade”. Please explain that one.
