Meanwhile most of the world are focusing on more important matters, such as cute animal videos.

What Phon said. The FB community at this point is all about posting pictures of your kids and food to show the world how great of a parent you are and how awesome your life is.

People from other countries think America is a land of opportunity and it is heaven. In my opinion America is basically hell. Compare to other country like in Europe, Canada. Those countries at least their governments help them a little bit versus in America we got nothing. If you want to live in America you have to have money and at least get into some sort of debt. Otherwise you will be homeless. Everything in America is about competition, it doesn't matter if you are an adult or a kid just goes to school. I think those people that posted stuffs on FB got no common sense in life and don't even look at life in the big picture. You cannot live in sample way in America. If every day you don't think about and not looking at the e big picture America is great, but when you start to look at it in detail, America is just hell and very depressing. Obviously America is bad country to move in.

American is not heaven but it is not exactly hell either. It offers opportunities but with much stipulations. Overall, it's "every man for himself."

Regarding the collapse of the American dream, I suppose people don't care to talk about it since they can't do anything about it--the root of the matter, that is. Or can we?
