I was always an anti-Thatcherite but not even Maggie caused as much damage as New Labour.
The US has been on a corporate calamity collison course since Reagan.
It's as though the ruling classes in Amerika really want to prove Marx's theory that capitalism will eat itself in the end. I believe the US as an empire is at the beginning of it's decline.
That decline will accelerate and the era Chinese and Russian ruling empires is at it's beginning but well advanced.
All very worrying for champagne socialists like like who had it so easy in the 80's !
