# Hitler 1932, Attlee 1945, Thatcher 1979?
They all made some pretty big changes

Exceptional cases make for bad rules...

Hitler was hardly what we'd term a free and fair job, though. Atlee I'll grant you, although there the circumstances were exceptional. Thatcher, I think, was nowhere near as radical as her fanboys make out. All she did was paint in more stark terms the basic drift towards economic libertarianism that had marked the previous decades (and, arguably, most decades since the early 19th C).
