According to a recent Gallup poll, 70% of Americans now believe the American Dream is no longer attainable for the average person. This stark figure represents a seismic shift in national consciousness.

The myth of American exceptionalism is crumbling under the weight of reality. Economic Collapse

The numbers tell a story of economic devastation wrought by unfettered capitalism. Since 1978, CEO compensation has grown 940%, while typical worker compensation has risen just 12%.

Three men now own more wealth than the bottom 50% of Americans combined.

Nearly 40% of Americans cannot afford a $400 emergency expense, according to the Federal Reserve, while Wall Street posts record profits.

“What we’re witnessing isn’t just inequality — it’s a systematic transfer of wealth from the working class to the ultra-wealthy,” says economist Dr. Thomas Piketty, author of “Capital in the Twenty-First Century.”

The average American worker needs to work 2.8 jobs to afford rent in most major cities, according to the National Low Income Housing Coalition.

Real wages, when adjusted for inflation, have remained essentially stagnant since the 1970s while productivity has increased by over 250%. Healthcare Crisis

Americans pay 2.5 times more for healthcare than citizens in other developed nations while receiving worse outcomes.

Medical debt is the leading cause of bankruptcy in America, with 66.5% of all bankruptcies tied to medical issues, according to the American Journal of Public Health.

“The American healthcare system isn’t broken — it’s functioning exactly as designed: to extract maximum profit while providing minimum care,” notes Dr. Marcia Angell, former editor-in-chief of the New England Journal of Medicine.

Over 500,000 families go bankrupt each year due to medical bills — a phenomenon that doesn’t exist in any other developed nation.
