The American Dream.
From the younger generation to the older generation on many ways you have taught us the American dream and in particularly one of the major aspect’s of it, relationship. My hopes and thoughts are going to be laid on the facts that relationships are the best way to find the American dream; So that we can better understand my point of view I will further explain my argument. Most people want money, power, and freedom, but face the facts jack; Most of America does not have any of these or our government is taking them slowly away right out from underneath our nose via the patriot act.
All I herd growing up and what I also hear today was and is “I wish I could have -------” fill in the blank, but all any one needs is family or good friends. It’s proven that people need people. I guess where I’m going with this is money and power do not bring you happiness, sure you will have nice things and people to boss around but trust me the people you do boss around do not like you because you make more money, or you are mean because you have to do your job par say, you caught them slacken off and did the right thing and told them off. If you want better examples just look at all our celebrities, all rich but not all happy. I think that to be truly happy you need a good up rising. We all need to be taught at an early age what the older generation has taught me; love, respect, and to spread what I’ve learned on to younger generations.
I think its funny that we as Americans think that we are free the sad thing is we are not free. Over the last decade or so we have been slowly giving away our rights our freedoms to our government without even fighting for them. Well there is one thing we did fight for and that was our precious liquor, during prohibition. But look at all the other things like the illegalization of marijuana, seatbelt law, wire tap law, patriot act, smoking ban. There are plenty and we let it slide because we think its best for us as a nation that our government is protecting us from ourselves.
