The dope-heads would have never risen to power and would not now be in possession of some of the most powerful political offices.

Perhaps more impactfully, they would have never gotten away socially with raising the Entitlement Generation that is going to ensure this country continues to spiral down the drain.

In short, we would be a more Conservative, financially sound, God-fearing country where people are expected to take care of themselves.

As it is now, we are - for all intensive reasons - China-lite.

Intents and reasons are not the same as intensive reasons. Or regions.

Da Faq? JFK was already POTUS with LBJ as VPOTUS. So the entitlement programs would probably still be there. If it wasn't for Vietnam we would have had LBJ in office until 1972.

The war on drugs may not have been necessary since alot of soldiers came back addicted to drugs and the anti-war protest were full of drugs. So maybe blacks wouldn't be as bad off since one of the major factors would have been minimized (the other being entitlement programs).

Plus like I said earlier Asia would become a Red Block and WW3 is inevitble.
