define: good

what i've seen more often than anything is the most powerful wins- that power may come from having something the others have no response to, or being willing to do something the other isn't.... i've rarely witnessed 'who' or 'what' winning based off of 'right and wrong'... it was a hard pill to swallow to discover this... 

that said... it's damn sure easier to present and stand by truth than it is a fabrication or twist... usually, the fabrication is found out... but that doesn't mean they lose.  they may be more powerful. 

i hate the world doesn't work the way we thought it did watching television in the 70's and 80's, where the 'good' guy prevailed and was right and just.

Good = right and just

didn't say good wins most of the time

just said good is supposed to win

as you stated, bad most times stacks the deck to triumph over good

So I'm assuming you were afraid of Led Zeppelin, The Who, The Rolling Stones, KISS, Rush, and pretty much every other rock band in the history of rock music?  'Cause their "getups" certainly weren't any better and in a lot of cases far, FAR worse...
