This is my very first blog and my US teacher want me to explain the relevance of modern America, so I want to talk about the American Dream. The reason why I have chosen this theme is because its overall an interesting subject to talk about and shows that each citizen has a equal opportunity to achieve their goals. Like James Truslow quoted in 1931, " life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement." Its relevance to this day is that the American Dream is not dead as may think, in 2011 a poll has been made question whether the American Dream is dead or not, 59% of Americans do not think the American Dream is dead as the other 41% thinks so. Also most Americans thinks that credit determination and hard work is the most important factor in financial well being in the report's recent history. So, the American Dream isn't dead to most Americans to this day.
