I dont think "opposite" is the right word.
It just means you have the opportunity to prosper based on talent and achievement. It never guaranteed prosperity individually.
- dragonwriter 12y ago> It just means you have the opportunity to prosper based on talent and achievement. No, it doesn't. From the earliest articulations, it involves both having wealth and having opportunity to further that wealth without barriers of class. > It never guaranteed prosperity individually. It doesn't guarantee anything, because its an common individual aspiration (hence the word "Dream" in "American Dream"), not a covenant.
