ARTICLE: Indian teenagers chase American baseball dream, Reuters, May 13, 2008
The American Dream is just an expression that says, "we're built to maximize personal happiness--however defined."
Our American System-cum-globalization does the same--plain an simple. That's the point David Brooks missed in his recent "beyond globalization" op-ed. "Blaming" it all on technology is a cop-out. Americans need to own their past and their globalized future.
