People believe in The American Dream, that with hard work and dedication anyone can become what ever they want. However this is a double-edged sward. When they see someone that is not as successful as they are they assume that they are lazy and should have worked harder. The notion is, ‘I worked to get mine and they cannot have any of it.’
I hope that you never find yourself in sickness or bad luck my friend. If you do I hope that someone who doesn't share your views has the time to help you.
I think that The American Dream has destroyed America.
