Is The American Dream Still Possible?

Asked by john65pennington (29258points) May 15th, 2010

We are born and come into this world with the highest expectations of becoming a great leader or prosperous in a dog-eat-dog business. is this dream still possible? everything in America seems to be on a downward trend and surely this makes young people think that they have no chance of making it. are the good old days gone when you could depend on a relative to set you up in a good job? is the dream of one man and one woman staying together and raising their children together, a thing of the past? i miss stability in America. i hate having to work two and three jobs just to pay the bills and feed the children. i make excellent money, but that alone, is sometimes not enough. i guess you could say i have mine made, but i wonder whats down the road for the young people? is the American Dream still possible for them?
