If you knew anything about the sellout of the US television industry in the 70's by Nixon/Ford/Carter, you would have known that there was a deal by the U.S. and Japan regarding Soviet Union and China. In exchange for Japanese support for issues re: the Soviet Union and China, they sold out the US television industry of which there were over 50 manufacturers. This was not a economic misunderstanding issue, but the US dealing from a weak posture as it did throughout the 70's. Nixon/Ford/Carter/dem Congress of the US were in a period of appeasement as the US public did not support global intervention. In the Reagan era, the US funded surrogates as the Soviets did in the 70's. The Afghanistan freedom fighters were the first of these. This did not require overwhelming US public support as in the case of direct intervention.
