That was a horrible and terrible read. Sadly that mindset is still today but we just treat it different with abortion....
There have been many many injustices done both by the US government and by individuals over the years.
Consider reading "A People's History of The United States" which although some may describe as liberally biased documents many instances of individual farmers and workers from places like Virginia and Texas standing up for their rights against a powerful government influenced by the Rich. These people would describe themselves as conservatives standing up for their rights.
I would also suggest "The Glory and The Dream" on Audible by Manchester.
http://www.amazon.com/Glory-Dream-Narrative-History-America/dp/1470887479/ It documents the story of many folks, some liberal, some conservative, spanning the entire rise of the US as a super power. It includes for example first hand accounts of the Bonus Marchers who were WWI Veterans crushed by the US government and ran out of DC by under orders.
Here is video of the US government testing at a medium distance, the exposure effects of radiation from the A-BOMB "Buster-Jangle Charlie" on US troops. This is not a secret. It was just conveniently left out of history class.

Side note: If you want to test a soundsystem download the high quality 320KB MP3 of The Day The World Went Away and turn up the volume to 80%. If you have a kick ass sound system at home you will be blown away by this song. The clarity of the recording both in the highs and lows is astounding. All of this is assuming your amp is clean. Trent Reznor is one hell of an audio freak and his later recordings are exceptionally clean compared to many tracks the music industry releases.
