Why does the “american dream” just feel so disillusioned? like what do you mean i should have a full time job, a husband, some kids, and a house by now?? I literally had to move back in with my parents

I like bringing up how the phrase “rat race” is completely dead atp because it used to mean sacrificing time with loved ones for the sake of making some extra money. People are working two full-time jobs right now for the sake of paying for the basics.

The American Dream died a long time ago, is it still possible? Yes, but broadly through corruption and confusion it has become extremely difficult.
