In my personal opinion the American dream is a promise that you can get material success and get more freedom in America. Has this dream really come dream? what is the reality in America?

The American Dream really comes down to one thing. What you are willing to put into it is what you get out of it. Some people come to America simply to start over. Others come in the hopes that they will be successful and enjoy what they believe to be a higher standard of living. Everyday you hear Americans complain about immigrants taking their jobs or how a certain ethnic group owns all the liquor, laundromats, motels, etc. The reality here is that Americans have enjoyed this standard of living for so long that they've become lazy. Anyone, and I mean anyone, can accomplish these goals. It's just that many immigrants are willing to put in the hard work. If not for themselves then for their children. The American Dream is the Promise of a new life. The reality is that a new life takes work and the dream won't just come to you, you have to go out and get it for yourself.

The American Dream
Good one, we all have to work hard to do whatever it is we're trying to accomplish. In America there are certain things that are protected by law and unfortunately some people have learned how to make the most of those things.
The Reality is however that you will always more freedom here than almost anywhere else. the standard of living and what the government does to protect your rights is second to none.

A promise is something that you say will do and hopefully it gets
done. When your promise is kept then it becomes a reality.
