That white-picket fence that everyone's talking about (alright, so it's just me talking about it)-- that place where you can retire and rest--has to be white-washed. It isn't good enough on its own, so they made it look better. But the thing about white-wash is that it has to be re-done yearly or the illusion of perfection will be eroded by reality and everyone could see just how much that white-picket fence isn't what it's cracked up to be. And that could be the end of capitalist society as America knows it. It could be the dawn of something must better but the end of the land lords of the white-picket fence.
Hopefully my obsession with the American dream will ebb and be taken on by a new topic for thought.
