Anyone?

Did Vietnam actually resolve anything or does the aftermath still affect our society, reflected in the current attitude toward war, drugs and perhaps morality?

I really do not know, but I have my suspicions.
War has always enable one group to dominate another; and enriched a few at the expense of many. And killed millions, the warfare totals of the 20th century alone were at least 100 million.

That's all it's ever done; that's all it will ever do.
