For us to use good grammar and spelling. ;-)
The truth is, the American Dream is different for every person. It may consist of the traditional family and white picket fence with the 2.5 kids and a good income. Or it may just be finding the love of your life, getting married, and living the rest of your days in leisure.
There is no one solid American Dream. You are allowed to dream, but be careful. It can destroy you just as it destroyed Willy Loman.

The American Dream means different things to different people. While we American's take what we have for granted and ***** about this and that while sitting on our lazy butts getting fatter and doing nothing about what pizzes us off, others are grateful to come here for the freedom they get. Which for a lot this means living off those of us who are paying taxes while they can still claim their foreign citizenship and not have to pay taxes while still receiving all of the benefits.

That doesn't exist anymore, america is not what it used to be. My dream as an american is to not be hated by every other country in the world, while being greedy, clueless, energy hogs.
