...icon of the American Dream as the Cadillac, the most expenxive American production car. It as a symbol of ealth.The American Dream should mean the right of the individual to become ealthy. Although the second paragraph of the Amercan Declaration of Independence from 1776, states that all men are created equal, it does not say, nor even suggest, that they should remain equal. So hile equality of rights and equality of opportunity are in theory at least fundamental values of American life, social equality is not. Blacks and Hispanics do not have the same opportunities as hite people. If you are a young person, ith black or hispanic origine, born to a sinlge mother living somehere in a urban gettho, it is more than probable that your dreams ill never be more than dreams. Americans have a tradition of respect and consideration for material ealth and success, and for those ho do ell and become rich. just as long as their ealth is a result of hard ork or successful business operations.Slogans that are characteristic for the American Dream and people, ho get it, keep the Dream alive. Horace Greeleys famous exhortation Go est, young man as an encouragement for people to go out and find ne ealth and create prosperity, by becoming land oners and house oners in the Ne America. The set phrase from a dishasher to a millionaire has became sombolic of many immigrants, and of course Americans, ho make their dream come true. The best example is Arnold Scharzenegger. He gro up in a little village in Austria. hen he as fifteen he discovered his love for body-building. ith daily hard ork and strong enthusiasm he on several times the title Mr. Olympia and Mr. Universum. One day, he made the decision to migrate in the country ith the unequalled possibilties.His film career started ith the movie Pumping Iron. Today he is not only a very excellent businessman, but also the gouverneur of California. In conclusion, it may be said that the American Dream doesnt mean, that only Americans or those, ho immigratet in the United States, has the chance to get a better life. Some people, ho immigrated in other countries, like Australia or South America, also get ealthy and happy. In general, here in Austria, everybody has also the same opportunities to achieve their aims. This is simply a question of ambition and industriousness. For me it is clear, that I dont have to leave my native country for having success.669 ords.ceyzIOJaQJamHsHaJmHsH0JmHsHmHsHrt,.celnpzII 1h à!ia8i8NormalCJsHaJmHsHtHAiDefault Paragraph Fontoziel1II...
