The Real Legacy of Margaret Thatcher, Britain's Iron Lady by The Heritage Foundation

In the (1)____________ of 1979
In the wake of Britain's "Winter of Discontent"
Margaret Thatcher's (2)________________________ Party
Won a landslide victory
The Iron Lady (3)________ the helm of a (4)____________ Britain
The sick man of Europe
As it had (5)________ to be known
But she refused to accept that decay
Was inevitable
And that the job of the (6)______________ governmen
Was to manage decline
Britain, should believed, could do better

"Some socialists seem to believe
That people should be numbers in a state computer
We believe they should be individuals
We're all unequal
No one, thank heavens, is quite (7)________ anyone else
However much the socialists
May pretend otherwise
And we believe that everyone
Has the right to be unequal
But to us
Every human (8)__________ is equally important"

And (9)__________ she had no shortage of critics
"The (10)__________ Minister is (11)__________ that
I (12)____________ every single one of her domestic policies
And I have never hidden that fact"
"I think the Honorable Gentleman knows
That I have the same contempt
For his (13)__________________ policies
As the the (14)____________ of east Europe
Who have (15)______________________ them..."
She was (16)____________ in her faith
That her (17)________________________ vision was right
"One of the great (18)______________ of our time
Is about how much of your money
Should be spent by the state
And how (19)________ you should keep
To spend on your family
If the state wishes to spend more
It can do so only by borrowing your savings
Or by taxing you more
And it's no good thinking someone else will pay
That someone else is you"
She knew what Ronald Reagan knew
That (20)________ markets and a free people
Are the best (21)______________ against tyranny
And that peace comes through strength
Not accommodation
"Mr. Speaker
Wars are not caused
By the build-up of weapons
They are caused when an aggressor
Believes he can (22)______________ his objectives
At an acceptable price"

America now stands at a crossroads
One path leads to deficits
Decreasing influence and decline
The other a renewed American dream
We all want

"Mr. Chairman
People want to live in peace
Real (23)______________ peace
The peace that comes
From independence of the state
And (24)__________ able to run your own life
Spend your own money
And make your own choices
And, (25)__________ all
The peace of a country
Which is properly defended
Against any potential adversary"
As we (26)________ stock of our choices
The legacy of Britain's (27)________ Lady
Remains a steadfast guide
