UPDATED: THE AMERICAN DREAM |
According to Wikipedia:
The American Dream is rooted in the Declaration of Independence, which proclaims that "all men are created equal" with the right to "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."[2]
Awww, hell, forget all that...
...that's so 20th Century, 18th Century even!
This is the 21st Century!
Who cares about movin' on up...
...let's pursue some happiness!!!
Our anthem says it all...
...this is land of the free, baby...
...and the home of the brave (eaters.)
And look at what the nutritionists at Carl's Jr. and Hardee's have dreamed up for us...
The American Dream is a national ethos of the United States, a set of ideals in which freedom includes the opportunity for prosperity and success, and an upward social mobility for the family and children, achieved through hard work in a society with few barriers. In the definition of the American Dream by James Truslow Adams in 1931, "life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement" regardless of social class or circumstances of birth.[1]
...bring it on!
According to the CDC, over one-third of the population of the United States is obese...
...and that number is, well, growing!
We sure don't need another study of a thousand words to tell us why...
...just one look at the picture above is all it took!
While POTUS took up the cause of his predecessor, George W. ("Is our children learning?") Bush, Michelle Obama decided to focus on "What are our children eating?"...
...much to the ire of students everywhere.
But, hey, kids, not to worry...
...you can dump those trays of mystery meat and veggies that only grandma would eat...
...and save your appetite for a stop by Carl's Jr. or Hardee's on the way home from school.
Beginning on May 20th, "The Most American" will be waiting for you...
