In den ganzen PDFs, die hier angeboten werden, sind die meisten Argumente iwie ein bisschen plump und nichts-aussagend.

Meine Liste zurzeit:

Pro:
- gives people hope, strength, motivation
- optimistic attitude to move along when they have lost everything/failed in life
- economy gets better because more ppl work harder and better

Contra:
- rare to become rich that easily. in the past -> more jobs, better economy -> better situation -> better chances
- American Dream can turn in American Nightmare -> , illegal immigration, discrimination, oppression of minorities
- huge gap between rich and poor
- danger of poverty
- chances are really small to reach something -> millions failed, some didn´t
- some may call you a dreamer if you still believe in it (pessimismus)

Und lernt ihr eigentlich auch die Geschichte von Amerika oder nicht? C:
