Anyone ever read The People's History Of The United States by Howard Zinn? Makes you wonder if we EVER were the good guys?

No, we really were the good guys.
Back when I was a kid, we were definately the good guys.
As an adolescent, I might have disagreed with "the system", but was comforted by the fact that we had it made.
In college, I started to question things a little more.

We aren't the good guys now that I know better.
There've never been many good guys with political power.
