Class and Caste-Sierra Armstrong

The American Dream is that everyone is equal and has the same rights as everyone else in getting what they want. The American Dream is basically dying out. Many people end of not getting and going after what they really want. I believe that this is because of the rising costs of college tuitions. Everyone has the right to go on to college, but not everyone can afford to go to college, which is the real perception. If they don't receive that upper education then they usually won't have a good job that can support everyone and everything they want in life. The ideal perception is that everyone goes on to college if that's what they want, graduates, and finds a job that they actually wanted. As you can see, the real and ideal perception are complete opposites. Everyone believes in the American Dream, but few actually get their American Dream.
