A slight issue with your comment about meddling in affairs of others, that started long before the Cold war. Lookup what we did in Guatemala in the early 20th century and the Philippines. And Hawaii. Check out the book Overthrow A Century of Regime Change. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overthrow_(book)
you're right. we've always had fat cat capitalists manipulating the system, but remember that FDR did a lot to curb that AND help win WWII. you can't just paint all of american history as a bunch of villains.
my entire point is that sometimes it takes a hero, and you can't win wars by being a pacifist.
