Rethinking The American Dream
This article showed how our generation has changed from the past generations, because The American Dream keeps changing. Not everyone wants the same thing, it might be similar, but the dream isnt the same for everyone. The older generation wanted equality and racism to go away, our generation wants the money, fancy cars, a large mansion, and fame. Even though our generation is more out there with wanting to rank in a higher class, its because our parents grandparents went through a time when money was an issue the recession that we had a few years back made the kids now see that if you have the money you'll be fine. We became more materialistic instead of being simple, we want more in life than just a nice a house. Every one in the media now a days wants to wear the newest trend, but not just physical appearance, we also want to know the newest word/slang to use around friends. American dream in the generation is who can be the highest baller infront of their friends, rather than being successful in a law firm.
