    When I was a kid, I was told that “The American Dream” was a house and two cars. At some point along the way, that morphed into “anyone can be a millionaire.”

      That’s because in many places you need to be a millionaire to get that two story ranch style house and 2 cars made in the last 5 years.

      Have it. Don’t want it. New American dream is to be able to fuck off in the woods for weeks at a time, and still have medical care.
