“(…) The essence of Thatcherism was to oppose the status quo and bet on freedom – odd, since as prim, upwardly mobile striver, she was in same ways the embodiment of conservatism. She thought nations could become great only if individual were set free. Unlike Churchill’s famous pudding, her struggles had a theme: the right for individuals to run their own lives, as free as possiblefrom micromanagement by the state (…) This is a crucial time to hang on to Margareth Thatcher’s central perception: that for countries to flourish, people need to push back against the advance of the state. What the world needs now is more Thatcherism, not less.”, na Economist desta semana (página 9).
