American Dream

Any impossible get-rich-quick or love at first sight type gimmick that was used to exploit legions of immigrants and blind, hopeful dreamers once upon a time.

This dream is especially important in an individualistic, greedy society in which wealth equals true human value. To many, the American dream is to become rich or famous. To some, it is to be extremely happy.

Both will lead to ruin and leave the dreamers disillusioned.

F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby and Theodore Dreiser's An American Tragedy both discuss the downfalls of the American Dream.
