American Dream....
When I was a little kid 50 years ago, in 1946, the American Dream was a house and a car. Today the American Dream is winning American Idol. It's changed slightly.
In another 50 years from now when the economy collapses and everything is in threads and torn, the American Dream then, in 20-whatever, will be a house and a car.
