Many people believe that the American Dream consists of money, the latest cars, and high priced cloth. They also think that wealth is the key to success which in some cases is not true. The U.S is becoming more and more depended on money. Many people also feel money shows your life accomplishment. The American dream is often based misplaced value then your life value. I feel that the American Dream is a Myth. You can like the American dream without the latest designer cloths and the hottest car. The American dream to me mean that you’re free and you can live your life. Meaning being able to good to the store at your free will is a blessing. Being able to walk the street without worrying about what race you is also a blessing. Being free to me is the greatest American dream. The reason why I feel this way is because people like Martin Luther King Jr fought for our freedom and people like Rosa Parks who wanted segregation to end. To me these people fought for the American dream and we are all living it. Well read some definition about the American dream there was a definition I thought fit my theory. “The American Dream can be described as a belief in freedom that allows all citizens and residents of the United States of America to achieve their goals in life through hard work. Another source can support the theory of the American dream being a Myth is the story “The United States Is a Land of Equal Opportunity”. In this story the author Walter Williams explains how the richer stays rich and the poor stay poor. It also showed how the real is made and from his view the way to live the American dream it comes from hard word .this to me proves that not only are you living the American dream each day you are working towards a better future. </strike>
