TSIS

Summary:

In the essay " Hiding from Reality," author Bob Herbert defined American Dream there is not much of it that's left anymore.  Standard of living are declining, American parents increasingly believe that their children will inherit a very bad deal.  There is a progressive downfall in our economy that is getting worse and worse.  Herbert also point out that the government is continuing to spend money on the less beneficial areas for the economy, our employment rate is increasing and U.S market salary isn't enough to provide for the average American family.

Response:

I agree with Bob Herbert because i do believe the U.S econmy is in a great slump with our budget and spending.  As of today, many American families still not make enough money to support their family and many people can't afford luxury lives as they want to.  The government should be spending money on things that are benefits our economy.  The government needs to take action now in order to once again pursue the American Dream like the idea of Bob Herbert is that the once proclaimed " American Dream" is still existent; our economy just needs to find a way to pursue that dream.
