#Reagan and #Thatcher will be remembered for lighting the match that set fire to the powder trail leading to the barrel of black powder yet to explode, but they did not manufacture that match out of thin air. It was an organisation that produced the *RoadMap* for them both and self-interests did the rest.
“At his first cabinet meeting as president in 1981, Reagan distributed copies of Mandate for Leadership, whose 3,000 pages came out of the Heritage Foundation, a conservative research group in Washington, DC. This became the ideology of neoliberalism, which advocated a smaller state, industry deregulation, tax cuts, strengthened defence, and roll-back of social engineering. A year later, 60 per cent of the Mandate’s proposals had been adopted by the Reagan administration, and The New York Times called it ‘the manifesto of the Reagan revolution’. His initiative engaged Thatcher, and spread globally to dominate public policy in democracies around the world.”
The same **Heritage Foundation** is behind #tRump ‘s two terms as #POTUS. If you didn’t know before, it’s all about #NeoLiberalism a combination of #Libertarianism and #Neo-Classical #EconomicTheory sure to please the #Rich and #Entitled in any society.

"Are We On the Verge of a Progressive Revolution Like the New Deal?”, Tom Hartmann, #DailyKos
"Every 80 years, it seems, we end up with a new progressive revolution, and we’re overdue for this generation’s. Progressive Democrats are leading the way, but none of it will work unless we all engage.”

@ProgressivePower
#Conservative #Republican hero #RonaldReagan debating his opponent George Bush for the #GOP presidential nomination in 1980, called for an Open Border with #Mexico. 🤔Both candidates give what would be called downright #Progressive responses, but #Reagan went even further, condemning any building of "a fence" and allowing Mexicans to come here to work freely... a response that would get him called a #Communist by today's GOP.

”In 1980, Republican president Ronald Reagan won the White House by promising that tax cuts would create such dramatic economic growth that Americans would be able to continue to fund popular programs despite those cuts. …the promise that tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations would pay for themselves never materialized. Instead, the national debt rose dramatically.”

Political differentiation is what’s needed in a political system where all parties (even the #Greens afaik) are content to work with the current #Economic system which is stuck in a 40 year old dogma; that markets know best (aka #NeoClassical or #NeoLiberal economic hogwash clearly debunked twice since the #Thatcher and #Reagan anathema on #WealthEquity , #SocialLicence and #SocialDemocracy).Otherwise the electorate would wake up to the con job the polies perpetrate.
And 100% on #FirstNations and #TorresStraightIslanders, all players in the political arena have #Abandonned them as a result of #TheVoice debacle (thank you #Anthony for doing fuck all to make sure the referendum passed, it clearly showed whose side you’re on #AlboPM )
I’m fucking sick of all polies and their lies, redirections, misdirections and disinformation. I can see no way out of this except 1) a mother of all global financial crash, or 2) people’s revolutions worldwide, or 3) both. We’ve been taken for a ride for far too long IMO.

#TruthTuesday 👇🧐
This bears sharing till we all see the #truth of our shared #history: 👉 those #1980s "leaders" - #Reagan & #Thatcher especially, & lackey-in-chief #Greenspan - these & the #conservatives that followed them, have endowed upon our 21st century a world of the hollowed #middleclass, gross #inequality, fiscal & monetary mismanagement leading to #highCPI, & endless #wars (including the enablement of #genocide such as in #Gaza). They're all dead but their torrid legacy survives...🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️👇 -
Thatcher, Reagan were the wrecking crew: How we keep pushing mess
This story is about the ideology that won. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, two politicians on either side of the Atlantic didn’t only win elections, they reshaped what people came to accept as “common sense.” Margaret Thatcher in Britain and Ronald Reagan in the United States did not invent capitalism’s worst tendencies, but they gave them state power, institutional infrastructure, and ideological legitimacy. What they built was not simply a set of policies, it was a social […]https://hamishcampbell.com/thatcher-reagan-were-the-wrecking-crew-how-we-pushed-the-current-mess/

Back in 1982, when #ChiefJustice John Roberts was a 26-year-old #Reagan staffer, he wrote that #minority voting protections were “the most intrusive interference imaginable by federal courts into state and local processes.”
By rescinding the #VotingRights Act of 1965 this past week, he and "conservative" pals Alioto, Gorsuch etc all just completed the #election rights stifling life's work that the young #RWNJ radicals dreamed about over 40 years ago...

Semmosta kävin tässä #JimmyCarter in hautajaispäivänä miettimään, että mitenhän paljon erilainen maailma olisi tänään, jos #IraninPanttivankikriisi ä ei olisi tapahtunut - jos #Carter olisi sen myötä saanut vielä toisen kauden pressana.
Että jo '70-luvulla konkreettisia tekoja #ilmastokriisi n ehkäisemiseksi tehnyt olisi ollut pressana vielä toisen kauden.
Että #Thatcher ei olisi saanut #Reagan ia aisaparikseen #uusliberalismi n tuhoivoiman levittämiselle.
