The Iron Lady's most quoted line - the real one, with a real receipt. "The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money." Margaret Thatcher, Thames Television interview, February 1976. Plenty of quotes get pinned on her; this one she actually said - which is why it's the one on the shirt, dated and everything. The design gives the Iron Lady the engraved-banknote treatment: a vintage portrait medallion - the coiffed hair, the pearls, the look that reorganized an economy - above a stacked poster-type lockup with SOCIALISM slamming through in brick red and OTHER PEOPLE'S MONEY. closing in burnished gold. It's economics, history, and one raised eyebrow, printed on heavyweight cotton you paid for yourself.
