    There’s a reason it’s an “American DREAM,” and not “the American GOAL.” You can make dreams whatever you want to be. If everybody had the same exact dream, it’s not a dream, it’s something that you’ve been told to pursue

    *_There is ABSOLUTELY NO GUARANTEE of an American Dream._* The ONLY WAY our American Dream can happen is IF AND WHEN We The People --- at least an active voting majority of us --- MAKE IT HAPPEN. This means, PRIMARILY, voting into office ONLY those who adhere to their SACRED OATH, and, MOST IMPORTANTLY, that We The People actually do our Patriotic DUTY. *_Regarding such DUTY, see such stated clearly in our Declaration of Independence._*

    The concept of the American dream, a cornerstone of our nation's ethos, remains unwavering despite the test of time. While some argue that its appearance and essence have evolved, their perspectives often resonate with beliefs and hopes held since the very foundation of the United States.

    The American Dream to me was that if you worked hard and did the right things, you would at least have a comfortable middle-class life. Maybe it was true in the '60s, but it's not true anymore.

    Depressing.
    Only one of them seemed to understand & (crudely) articulate the American Dream: "small government & to be left alone".
    The rest were just wishing for their chosen success story. Some at least understood hard work was necessary. They hoped to live the dream but had no ability to express it in correct abstract terms. That shows just how thoroughly US education is failing Americans.
