From: redrocket | #202Confidence in the American Dream has been withering for some time now. I doubt this one speech will have any impact on that trend one way or the other.
Yeah yeah, but it's an indication of the overall message of the past few administrations, and it builds up over time to do real damage.
It's been happening since the 70's, and the causes are bigger than just our government. See this speech by Jimmy Carter:

Well worth reading in its entirety. We (maybe) had a brief recovery in 80's under Reagan, but we've been slowly circling the drain ever since.
