Onion News Network, Fridays at 10/9c on IFC. The last vestige of the American Dream slipped away as a Pennington, IL resident quietly laid aside his hope of owning a bar & grill.

This video spoke to me. While I was watching it I heard a loud crash outside. I looked out the window and didn't see anything so I went about my business which was watching The Onion. Then I saw this little gem. I thought to myself, hey man, they're talking about me! I wouldn't get up off my but to investigate a noise cause I was too comfy and lackluster. So I decided to change a few things. I don't want to be like Tuffy! Long story short, my neighbor had a truck load of fire wood delivered to his house and they dumped it on his driveway.

I remember when the American Dream died for me. I used to have all these hopes and a belief that this country was brimming with opportunity. After pursing a number of opportunities they all went down with either corrupt beurocracy, competitive sabotage, or were just not worth the effort to maintain while sustaining a barely comfortable lifestyle. I'm doing well enough for myself these days but am no longer wasting time, effort, and energy on idealistic ventures. Just working to get by and avoid trouble, setting a low but realistic bar for expectations, and ironically this mindset is what gets me through the day now.

​​@@DanielFerreira-ez8qdI think it's more about the people that say the American dream is dead is people that really didn't try to achieve it. It is still thing but people take their own individual experience and say the whole thing is dead because they can't cope with failure so they blame something supposedly bigger than them like society or the government.
