You are so correct about Viet Nam. We must put its damage away in the same way so many GIs returning from WWII did by turning their full attention to doing the right thing, building and rebuilding while whistling happy tunes all along the way. Our nation and middle class may actually have been built as an unconscious method of national atonement and a way to productively use the adrenalin of victory. That radical pivot allowed many of the combat-damaged to heal. We didn't get that after Nam, but we can be better late than never by inviting in all the homeless vets and volunteer vets to build those millions of affordable housing units Harris/Walz want to do. Let HUD lead and let the magas and assorted wingers vote against it. When we fight the good fights, we bygod win.
