the funniest irony about the rhetoric about "the american dream" is that its almost never americans actually getting off their ass, dusting themselves off, pulling themselves out of poverty and building a better life for themselves. they are too busy watching NASCAR, monster trucks and WWE while suing McDonalds for making them fat and demanding that Obama make their lives better.
Bullshit. Fucking myth... "Just get up and pull yourself out of poverty". People living in poverty need help to do that. But, lets cut welfare, food stamps, health care, child care, education spending, access to student loans. Then with no support system in place it's their fault.
