The American Dream Outlook

People long ago knew exactly what the American Dream was. Today there is a completely new meaning to it. In the beginning, it was a basis for what American’s knew. The definition of the American dream is the widespread aspiration to live better than their parents did.  That dream has changed now, instead of people viewing it as an opportunity for a better life many are seeing it as an opportunity to get away with murder, steal from the government or win big in a lawsuit. Instead of living the best life possible, they are trying to live it by beguiling others by any means. The dream for most, in general, is to do better off than their families before them. Many people have lost sight of what we once were. Possibilities then were endless dreams with no bounds of what could be. Back then, people only saw the positives of a hope to do great things. Now it is as if American’s only see the dismal side of life. From our harsh economy to facing wars to the east, it all seems so grim from that long ago happier view on America.
