Everybody still believes in the fairy story of the paperpboy becoming a millionaire. In reality winning the lotterie has more chances.

Since the 1970s, wages, after adjusting for inflation, have been in decline for 80 percent of U.S. men on the lower end of the income scale. For 60% of the families its been a losing battle, the average household is in deeper debt then ever before.

Still the American Dream lives on, but for many it becomes a nightmare...
