She's the sister of Thatcher's Attorney General, it seems. I think we all know how I feel about that gang of thugs.

Indeed. The very same ones that freed up capitalism to enable people like you to enrich yourselves

Nick earns money through his own labour, not through capital.

He earns the amount he earns because he is free to engage in open markets and sell his services to whoever he wishes at a price that is determined by the markets. This is by virtue of the forces of capitalism which has an entirely different meaning to the word "capital". His freedom to sell his services in a market driven economy is entirely down to what he refers to as Thatchers bunch of thugs. I smell hypocrisy.

What about those who were doing that before thatcher came to power?

You mean entrepreneurship and trade, not capitalism.

The reality is that this kind of stuff cannot effectively be fixed because the abuse is being committed by those in power, indeed by those who are the most powerful. It doesn't make sense to say we can exercise control over those who are the "most powerful" because they are (by definition) more powerful than us.

Sure we could make ourselves somehow more powerful than them, but then whoever then leads us will then become the "most powerful", free to commit whatever abuses or perversions they want to, and they'll get away with it because they are at the top of the tree.

So you think there was no business or rich people before Thatcher came, the UK was a communist state before her? You give her too much credit, globalization and technological advances create the benefits .

I think they are both in old people's homes

Thatcher freed up industry from the shackles of Union and government control. The UK was virtually a communist country on the edge of bankruptcy. Companies were forced to compete in markets as opposed to being government run monopolies. The drivers of the contractor boom were the banks and the energy companies who were forced to invest in technology in order to compete in what were to become global markets.

I am surprised I need to explain this to you.
