Anyways, I was just thinking about American dreams recently and I think they are more like modern American nightmares of oppression and bondage. People get BS/BA degrees, then either PhDs/MBA/MS/MD degrees, then most often these Americans end up at some dead end job pushing paper or pushing people to do work for rich people to attain more money and all that jazz. So I really don't get it, for example getting a house is essentially a form of bondage (30 year mortgage? What the hell happened to owning your own land, IN ACTUALITY THE BANKS PWN YOUR ASS). Also getting a gig with a good 401k and benefits is "the American dream." How can retiring at 65 be a dream? I say F-that, I say experience life, because when you are 65 you are not going to care about some presentation, or some good work you did unless you solved some big ass problem. Most people don't solve big ass problems, they solve trivial ones no one cares about and then you turn 65 miserable with a 401k, but so what? You can't take it with you! How can you be a self-made man, if elitist market the fact that in order to be "successful" you have to look, feel, think, and do like the next shmuck from the cube next to you? IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE!
