A lot of Americans went crazy after the US lost the war in Vietnam. Ronald Reagan offered them a return to a happier time, when everything made sense.

The book ‘The Carpetbaggers’ became a movie; there was a Western actor mentioned in the story, Nevada Smith. Does anyone else know a daring character named after a state with a five letter last name?

Hughes had been the inspiration for a famous novel of the time, “The Carpetbaggers.”
HH was played by Leo DiCaprio in ‘The Aviator.’

If you haven’t seen it, ‘The Wild Bunch’ with William Holden is a great ride.
Most of the time when you destroy the system you get a much worse system.
Iran got rid of the Shah and got the current freedom loving regime.
The Russians kicked out the old Communist Party and got a KGB trained billionaire in charge.
