I would say, that you are right, but I would define the "fence+dog" one as not the original "American dream", even when many people are content with fence+dog.

- nodata 13y agoSo many people seem to think that that's the dream that I've almost given up saying anything. #3 and the Carlin quote from #2 probably make a good point: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=american%20dream http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=american%20dr...
- PythonicAlpha 13y agoThe Carlin quote makes a good point here. Also #3 really summarizes what I think about the American dream. I think, historically, the American dream makes some sense, when people had to flee from Europe, to have any possibility at all to live a free and content life. But even in this time, this dream did not come true for everybody. Today, we have a different setting: The American dream is hold on, to appease the masses of people that never have any chance to get in reach of the American dream at all.
