The American Dream is a logical fallacy. It has but only outcome which is self-destruction. How can the normal distribution exist without mediocrity and poverty?

What's truly disturbing how conservative politics can flourish so predominantly amongst the least likely to benefit from them[the south].

you can have a normal distribution without poverty. poverty isn't 'having less than everyone else', poverty is struggling to survive. the american dream isn't "nobody is poor", the american dream is "work hard and you won't be in a struggle to survive."

Income doesn't have to follow a normal distribution.

Well if you define "mediocrity" to be "most people", and "poverty" as "the bottom 15% of incomes", then you would be right.

So you think wealth distribution follows a normal distribution in the US?
