October 2008 The financial crisis is hitting middle-class America, as families are forced onto the streets. Some say its the end of the American dream but for others this is a chance to redefine whats important. In California, the credit crunch has had a devastating effect on families that bought expensive houses with no down payment and high interest rates. The houses wont sell and their owners are left with nothing. A growing number of people find refuge in car parks, sleeping in their vehicles until they find another job. This is the flipside of American life. No-one is looking out for you. Craig used to run a successful business but now lives in a borrowed van with his wife and two kids. Despite the setback, he isnt bitter. Life in a car park has made him redefine the American dream for himself. Now he measures abundance in personal happiness rather than material possessions: I’m less encumbered. and I become more pleased with each new step. Barbara is another casualty of the credit crunch. She lost her job as a notary and had nowhere to go. After a few months sleeping in her car, shes found housing again but the experience was an eye-opener: People who are broken by being homeless are dependent on all of their belongings and possessions as their identity. And that isn’t who they are. It seems many more will have to find out for themselves. Produced by SBS/Dateline Distributed by Journeyman Pictures

In “Inheriting an Abundant Earth” a simple rule tweak on inheritance ends up changing the direction and purpose of modern human life! Here’s a fair way to give the 99% the key to the vaults! It’s something specific we can demand. Are we really just this close to having it work right? Break one link, and the chains fall away! Oh yeah, it’s a Ski movie! Watch “Inheriting an Abundant Earth” (“Occupying Chairlifts” 5.0) then sign the petition, and share it!!
Military power means in long run corrupted society. Current USA is product of American military imperialism. In real free market current USA would destroyed very fast. Their education system is poor (probably in same level than many eastern European countries, far from most Asian and Scandinavian countries).
I know what you mean first hand.. This country is turning into a every man/woman for him/herself. It’s not the same country I growing up in say 8-10 years ago. I’m looking into buying more equipment for protection when stuff declines even further.
The American dream is just that…a dream…
true. they deserve everything that has come to them.
grow a pair of balls and join a militia. do something about it.
true. they deserve everything that has come to them.
seems sadly the dream is just to stay alive,powerless, what is just what agenda 21 is all about,look it up, the the plan to take over the world,not a new plan by any means, 21 means this century. infact there just about at the end of the take over,the off shore bankers no longer need the USA and its fake bank (the fed) to create free money from delt,they have used it to put most of the world under there control, so how that they have shipped most true manufacturing off shores its time TO END USA
Yeah so take your own advice and fuck off from the native Indian lands
Immigration overload is the death of the American Dream. Americans need to kill those immigrants.
i feel nothing for americans the most greedy ppl on the planet the american ppl thru their evil gov. export wars, corruption and with their multinationals suck all the worlds wealth and then export inflation thru the dollar petro scheme i feel absolutely no feelings for these who bought homes for 1.8 million and now have to sleep in their huge giant cars… poor things… some ppl homes are smaller then those cars, american dream is fucking us over
FUCK THE ZIONIST JEWS FUKIN BASTERDS RUIN EVERYWHERE THEY ARE THERE PARASITES

Then why not revolt against the Government? it is easy to do it when it effects YOU americans but when people in Iraq are being killed you look to the other way?
The tea party protested over a healthcare bill yet no one would ever protest against the war in Iraq!

The American Dream is over, judgement has arrived.
The upper levels of san francisco bay area have never dropped at all. All these homes values above a million have actually gone up in value. The rich are getting richer and average people lost it all.
We U.S. Citizens do not vote for war ! That is absurd. We have no choice in the matter..
Rich people all over the world create the circumstance for war to exist.
its such a paradox that cunts like u criticize socialism, but then also criticize zionists. lol.
You can keep your socialism over in the UK. Most of the people lost homes that they would never be able to pay for anyways. Debt is the surge of man and a zionist tool to control the public.
lol, 800,000 for a “normal home” is too high, needs to come down, as this housing crisis is doing.
I would disagree with that father in that camper that in America/Capitalism, “nobody is looking out for you”. We have a HUGE SOCIAL SAFETY NET OF WELFARE/SECTION 8/FOODSTAMPS/ETC… it’s just being sucked up and occupied by the “professional poor” and immigrants and their children, both legal and illegal. We also have many charities that help out.
The immigrants also LOWER WAGES, TAKE JOBS. LOWER IMMIGRATION NOW!
what in the hell actually is a “life coach?”
Europe’s socialist, banker-driven system is in shambles right now, on the verge of collapse. The world is heading into ruin
The same in the US. Too much wartime spending is bankrupting the nation.
