Seriously, the American dream isn't dead--anybody who has a good or novel idea can make money. Great example: the guy who "invented" the Pet Rock back in the 1970s--he made millions off of people buying rocks. (If that isn't truly American I don't know what is.)

id. Human psyche.
noun Psychoanalysis .
the part of the psyche, residing in the unconscious, that is the source of instinctive impulses that seek satisfaction in accordance with the pleasure principle and are modified by the ego and the superego before they are given overt expression.

Basically the OP is about what makes you... Well, you or the view of your place in the eyes of others.
There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.
