520 |a Never before have so many people felt the American Dream crashing down around them. The corporate framework--which values competition and the bottom line above all else--keeps many of us running after an elusive goal and impinges on our personal lives. Advertising-driven culture causes material desires to grow with no corresponding increase in personal time or energy to pursue them. These artificially amped-up needs cause a pressure-cooker lifestyle that threatens health and happiness.
