As long as you work hard and strive to achieve your goal in life almost anything is possible. Some people choose to think that the American Dream a thing of the past. I choose to think that with determination and the proper mindset you can achieve their ambition in life. There are all kinds of opportunities and help in the world such as Financial Aid, Food Stamps, Wick, and ect. Someone who shares the same opinion as me is a man called Adam Shepard. He is the author of the book “Scratch Beginnings”, and has also completed what he believes what the American Dream is. Another person called Barbara Ehrenreich does not believe that the attaining success is possible or attainable by the people of a lower class, but the American Dream is alive and anyone can achieve it.…
Eventually most american dreams are smashed by our own greed and desire for this, so ironically we make our american dream unattainable. Many people spend most of their lives trying to achieve the american dream (in their eyes). I believe that the American Dream is attainable…
At its core, the American Dream is simply about possibility––it makes no guarantees. It’s an alluring but elusive ideal. Take an Impressionist painting, you can admire it from a distance, but as you get closer, it becomes incoherent. You lose sight of the big picture (literally). The same is true of the American Dream; you can admire it as a concept, but as you get closer, what was so clearly compelling begins to dissolve.…
They call the United States of America the land of equal opportunity, where hope is a given and all you have to do is dream. However this was not the case for many people, such as the women in the United States around the late 1860 through the 1920s, when our beautiful country began opening its doors. As a matter of fact when we look back at our history, during that time period, it seems that women weren’t even allowed to dream. They would live their lives according to the rules and standards that society had set for them. From childhood they were only taught how to cook and clean, how to keep a house in order, and how to care for children. Education wasn’t an option and they were often shamed if they spoke out; in other words their opinions were meaningless. It seems that the female gender has come a long way in history, but it took many brave women to stand up and take radical steps to change the future for the upcoming generations. For women in the 1860s through the 1920s, the American Dream of equal treatment and the right to vote seemed to be a myth due to the strong male opposition throughout the workforce, the political field, and even the home; however, all the efforts that the brave women who spoke out and worked towards equality and suffrage soon paid off to make their dream a reality through the right to keep and earn profit from their working land and the 19th amendment being added to the Constitution.…

Before you can determine if the American dream is attainable we first need to understand what the american dream is. The american dream is rooted in the declaration of independence where it says “all men are created equally with the right to life liberty…
The American Dream can be defined as- “a happy way of living that is thought of by many Americans as something that can be achieved by anyone in the U.S. especially by working hard and becoming successful.” (Merriam-Webster Learner’s Dictionary) As we watch our country’s struggle throughout financial crises, we, as citizens, are torn in the belief that the American Dream is still possible. Although the outlook for our country includes events ranging from an apocalypse to another Great Depression, I am optimistic my “American Dream” can still be achieved, although it might be difficult.…

The American dream is a term used in a lot of ways. Although research has shown that American dream can’t be attainable by most people, closer examination shows that it can be attainable by the following reasons. As Daniel J. Mitchell stated in New York Times im January 1st, 2015 “The United States is not a perfect country, but the American Dream is still a reality.” By that he meant that even with America’s Grow rate, poverty, unemployment rate in the past years and still going Americans can still chase their American dreams.…
Is the American dream just a myth? Anyone who does not live in America imagines his greatest ambitions and the best place to meet them America. For everyone the American dream means something else. In this term I imagine pretty house with swimming pool in the suburb of any American town, beautiful wife, nice cars, a lot of money. Almost as much as we see in movies. American dream I would define as a life goal. We all want to achieve something and everyone says it differently but we always mean the American dream. :)…
In conclusion, the American Dream is still possible if we correctly use what is in front of us. The reason we have this argument is because people fail to see the opportunity this country provides them. We always must remember three big points not outlined in my thesis. Use the resources given, remember that scholarships and the ROTC program are there for a reason. Next, take risks, capitalism is built for entrepreneurs, take advantage of that.…
