I think the dream has a couple of faces. One is the one marketed by companies interested in consumerists. They want the aspirational aspect so that people reach every further to attain this kind of goal. The other is the vision people in whose parents didn’t have it all but their children aspire to be more and to be part of the first class of dreamers. Now, part of this other aspect is that for many it’s a kind of dream. We wish it, but we may not achieve it this generation either, but maybe next.
That said, if enough people achieve this dream, the dram is fulfilled and there are no more dreamers because they’re all fat cats now.
