Tоpic: Benjаmin Frаnklin Reаd the fоllоwing excerpt from Marija C. Durdevik's "The Rise and Fall of the American Dream: From Franklin to Facebook": How far removed American society is from its Pilgrim origins indicates the gradual but remarkable transformation of the Puritan creed into a hedonistic modus operandi--not only do puritanism and hedonism stand at the opposite sides of the spectrum, the incongruity between the two ideologies illustrates that the American Dream is actually unsustainable in contemporary conditions. Hence theorists’ doubts in that regard--does the Dream still exist, was it stolen, could it be restored, or has it perhaps irrevocably turned into a nightmare and lost cogency altogether. The promise of the good life as a reward for hard work, determination, thrift, and self-sacrifice has been broken. In contrast, the noble democratic ideals of equal opportunity, freedom, and justice have become unattainable in practice. Once upon a time, morality and ideals used to be densely woven into the fabric the American Dream was made of, but today we live in the era of diminishing expectations devoid of transcendental ideas and goals (Lipovecki, 1987, p. 45). Franklin’s self-made man is long dead and gone, together with his notions of individual and communitarian progress. Material wealth, which has become an end in itself, is no longer a result of virtue, effort, or hard work, but clever manipulations and readiness to use the system and be used by it. Whether the concept of the American Dream, already significantly transformed, can endure, remains to be seen. Write an essay responding to this quote. Do you agree? Disagree? Both?
