Communists took over the country. Vietnam fell the whole Asia did not become communist as the American told the world it would.

Vietnam and the whole Asia became capitalist being today the financers of US.

Yes, it does take long to sink in.

The US governing elite is very skillful on instigating the feeling of the American population. After Vietnam war was lost that feeling of being invincible and that government was always right.

The US was forced out of the gold standard due to the printing required for financing the Vietnam war. On top of losing the war, that the inflation resulting for it was devastating.

But the US governing elite had a card up its sleeve. Reagan came in and kick-started the 'feeling rebuilding program'. Had the US accepted that its heyday were over, perhaps all that deficit that the US has today would not had been built.

We must all the time be aware of the government manipulations.
